Brakedown

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Article with no reliable/non-primary sources that fails WP:GNG for fictional characters. The usual plan for such non-notable characters is to redirect/merge to a minor characters list but none appears to exist.

 * Keep - Notable character article that just needs work. At the rate these deletionists are nominating articles, how can they expect work to be done on them! Keep and start nominating them at a sane pace. Mathewignash (talk) 21:09, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - and that goes for all Transformers articles. GoodDay (talk) 22:03, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - Fancruft, sourced to fansites, no real-world notability to be found, fails WP:GNG. Tarc (talk) 22:13, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - notable multi media character where reliable sourcing can be found. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 01:03, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge to List of Transformers: Cybertron characters along with other characters from the same series. —Farix (t &#124; c) 01:30, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
 * When dealing with non-notable character articles, it is always preferable to look for a list or to create one to merge the article into, or merge/redirect them to the main article instead of outright deletion and is in keeping with the WP:PRESERVE policy. Only in cases where the character is completely incidental should it be deleted. Also, how the page is currently organizes shows the folly of trying to cover more than one character from different series that happen to share the same name. —Farix (t &#124; c) 18:27, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete once again. Like most of these articles, no reliable sources, and only really sourced to either primary sources or fancruft. Thus, fails GNG and general notability to boot. Skinny87 (talk) 09:15, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
