Christopher "Chris" Tracy

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Non-notable fictional character with no evidence of real-world notability and no significant coverage in reliable sources, article is essentially a plot summary of Under the Cherry Moon. I mentioned the lack of notability at a merge proposal in August 2009, and subsequently redirected the article, but now 96.250.181.28 has reverted that twice, so I'm bringing it here for consensus.

I have no objection to this being redirected again, but deletion would be preferable, the title is a very unlikely search term; the character is called Christopher Tracy, the chances of anyone searching for Christopher "Chris" Tracy are are non-existent.

 * Delete - as stated by nom, the character has not managed to prove notability by receiving deep coverage by and in reliable secondary sources. Also, the character has no impact in popular culture. -- LoЯd  ۞pεth  01:49, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
 * deep coverage is not a WP requirement -- for anything at all. The most we ever need is substantial coverage.  DGG ( talk ) 01:45, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete The character has no cultural notability outside of the Prince movie. Warrah (talk) 15:26, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete because the fictional character is from only one film, and details of the character can be discussed at the film's article. There is no indication here that the character would transcend the originating film enough for its own article. Erik (talk &#124; contribs) 19:22, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
