Non-notable character from the Transformers universe. No evidence of real-world notability. Josh Milburn (talk) 09:34, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge to List_of_Transformers:_Robots_in_Disguise_(2001_TV_series)_characters. Mathewignash (talk) 14:37, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
 * I would also note that the author of these deletion nominations is using them excessively, since most end in mergers. Perhaps he should simply suggest mergers and avoid the unnecessary nomination? Mathewignash (talk) 14:37, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm not going to propose merges, because literally nothing will happen. This is the only means that has proven close to effective. These terrible articles have existed here for years, and nothing is getting done about them, despite the fact that people have been telling you for years that something needs to be done. (Also, I think a "merge" is a generous description of the actual result of these discussions.) That said, if you're happy to work with me in seeing these articles merged (and it's not just yet another attempt to see these articles hanging around indefinitely by default...), I'm happy to point to the articles that need to go. I'm not sure you'll like what I say, though, which will bring us back to where we are today. Josh Milburn (talk) 16:54, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
 * If you can't be BOTHERED to do it right, perhaps you should simply go find something else to fix, or spend the time to do a PROPER merger. Wikipedia isn't going to collapse if you don't merge or delete these articles NOW. Deleting articles that should not be deleted, on purpose, simply because it's FASTER that merging them, is no better than vandalism. Forcing people to merge them in a quick and sloppy fashion by threatening to delete the articles is on the verge of bullying, in my opinion.Mathewignash (talk) 20:11, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
 * That's rich. You write article after article of unreferenced, in-universe minutiae, then have the audacity to accuse me of doing things wrong? If you don't like my brush, sweep up after yourself. Josh Milburn (talk) 20:35, 11 April 2016 (UTC)


 * Redirect to List of Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 TV series) characters. Google results are just the usual fan sites, and Google Books results are mostly novels.  I don't see significant coverage in reliable sources. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 05:13, 13 April 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Redirect - Without anything to properly establish notability as a topic, this does not require a standalone article. TTN (talk) 19:29, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Redirect instead as this is not independently notable, not seriously needed for deletion. SwisterTwister   talk  22:18, 25 April 2016 (UTC)
