Commander Kyle

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Extremely minor Star Trek character. Amounts to fancruft. Wikipedia is not Memory-Alpha. NMChico24 03:15, 26 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete or merge into recurring characters. Kyriakos 03:27, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete bit part, Memory Alpha already has him. Gazpacho 05:44, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Minor role, minor character. I don't see anything in Notability (fiction), but do not consider the character to meet any of the four main points for inclusion. If the character can be shown to have a major impact on the plot of an episode, I would reconsider. -- saberwyn 10:32, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete or Merge per WP:FICT.-- danntm T C 14:22, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge to a list of minor characters in original Star Trek (not sure if such a page already exists). Walton monarchist89 18:11, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete or merge into a suitable list of minor characters. Definitely not sufficiently notable for own article. WJBscribe 23:14, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. Although this article needs a lot of work and cleanup, the character was a recurring one throughout the original series and was also brought back (played by the same actor) for Wrath of Khan. I'm actually surprised an article on the character hadn't been made a long time ago. Kyle is actually more a major character than some of the one-time characters that do have articles about them. Memory Alpha is not Wikipedia and just because something is covered by them doesn't mean we can't do it too; I don't accept MA inclusion as any criteria against Wikipedia inclusion, barring an actual policy being implemented. 23skidoo 23:57, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I see your point, however, I don't accept that other similar characters having articles is a criteria for keep. --NMChico24 00:49, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak keep and expand per 23skidoo. thanks/Fenton, Matthew Lexic Dark 52278 Alpha 771 02:17, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails to establish the out-of-universe significance of this character, as required by WP:FICT. JChap2007 02:29, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete right now there's no good place to merge minor TOS characters. Eluchil404 08:10, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
