This is a non notable film character who's bio is written like that of an actual person. AniMate 19:25, 5 February 2007 (UTC) Addhoc 19:26, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak keep but rewrite - it's certainly written in an in-universe style, so needs cleanup to comply with WP:FICT. However, that doesn't necessarily make the character non-notable. Walton monarchist89 19:35, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment: But is this person notable? I can't see too much evidence that they are... J Milburn 20:31, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - the character is apparently from the movie I Want Candy (2007 film), and as per WP:FICT should be merged, but the level of detail here is just excessive for a single film. Not to mention the lack of references.  Furthermore, the contributions from User:Mynameispiers looks suspiciously like they may be part of an advertising campaign. -- Whpq 21:15, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Busted. I am Spartacus - I am the author. I am the producer of the film. I believe in wikipedia. I want to fit in. Every single fact in this entry and the movie entry is true and is verifiable, but the links would be academic footnotes rather than hyperlinks to broaden the reader's understanding. On the other hand you will see links from mainstream, acting and career. i believe this is a justifiable entry. We are a small British movie that is about to be released in a tidal wave of publicity. People are going to expect wikipedia to explain who Candy Fiveways is, particularly as we will be wilfully blurring the line between character and actress. All I can say is that last night we had a screening for 450 people who laughed so long and loud that they missed some of the jokes. If the style is wrong tell me. I am passionate about this. That can't be too bad. Does someone want to come to a screening? On the issue of too much detail, I cannot agree. Are we running out of space? mynameispiers 21.13, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete unless rewritten and sourced per above searches. Addhoc 19:26, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge There's not telling if this film character is going to be notable, and since Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, merge it into the article for I Want Candy (2007 film). If Candy Fiveways turns out to be a notable character, we can always start over. AniMate 23:30, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
