Carter family (EastEnders)
AfDs for this article:


 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

It goes without saying the EastEnders is, as EastEnders in popular culture Wikipedia article itself says, with references from reliable sources, a "BBC soap opera with ... large impact on popular culture."

The 2019 Articles for deletion/Carter family (EastEnders) discussion was closed based on rationale that "The single niche award" - in this case Inside Soap's 2014 award. The discussion was closed with the participation of only a few editors. To my mind, a second WP:AFD may well be a better way to assess whether this meets the requirements for a Wikipedia article. OK, let's start this off.

Reasons for a keep outcome

 * the article created in 2013 and deleted in 2019 via WP:AFD - the AFD was based on a quibble about an award
 * the 2023 version of the article now contains new references that the article deleted in 2019 lacked
 * a number of other users have in good faith edited the article - their opinions should be considered before outright speedly deletion

Reasons for a delete outcome

 * all the new references pre-date the 2019 AFD - has anything changed since 2019?
 * the article deleted in 2019 was created in 2013 by a now blocked user AngieWattsFan - has anything changed since 2013?

As always, more happy than happy to be proven wrong. Shirt58 (talk) 🦘 10:02, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Redirect to the list of characters; seems like GNG failure to me. No section on reception/analysis/cultural significance. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 11:08, 19 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect This is a non-notable grouping of characters who may or may not be notable individually. The family itself has little notability. QuicoleJR (talk) 13:58, 19 November 2023 (UTC)
