The last nomination was closed as "no decision" only because of an arbcom injunction. The article is about a fictional subject and does not have the required secondary sources to establish notability or provide real world context. Jay32183 (talk) 06:24, 11 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete or merge, lack of independent sources, the only sources cited are Wikipedia articles on episodes. Guy (Help!) 11:41, 11 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Merge if possible, delete if not. Same reasons as above. Cougar Draven (talk) 12:00, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure merging is really an option. There aren't season articles for Charmed and the character list is already a mess. If there are sources for single season articles, I haven't checked, season two would be the target for this info. Since all the information comes from the show itself, recreating information on the characters from scratch wouldn't be an issue if sources turned up later. Jay32183 (talk) 22:10, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm still in favor of merge or delete. As Neil has said below, there is an article for Charmed family and friends. (I wouldn't know, I don't watch the show.) The information for these characters can go there just as easily as it can have its own article. And honestly, even if this did have real-world sources, is it notable? The subject of two characters from a TV show? Perhaps if they were main characters, yes, but I gather they are not. Cougar Draven (talk) 22:23, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
 * That's the article I referred to as a mess. Attempting to merge without cleaning up that article first would create an unnecessary burden. These characters only matter during season 2 and not to the overall story of Charmed, so having them in the character list may not be appropriate for that. There are characters who appeared in fewer episodes but had a larger impact on Charmed. I did watch every episode of the show in order, by the way. Jay32183 (talk) 06:43, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Merge into List of Charmed family and friends.--NeilEvans (talk) 22:13, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge somewhere or delete because they still haven't established any kind of notability since the last nom. I had List of characters in Charmed in mind as a merge target (where all the other nonnotable Charmed characters can be merged), but obviously this article would have to be created first. – sgeureka t•c 23:00, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge the preference is always for merging rather than deletion. If a merge is refused by consensus there, only then would there be reason to bother AfD about it. How extensive the merge should be can be discussed on the talk pages. DGG (talk) 04:10, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge per NeilEvans. --Pixelface (talk) 12:54, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
