Daniel Martin

The lead says he's a fictional footballer, but the article writes as if he's real, and there are no references. Shalom Hello 15:59, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment I'm still not sure who Daniel Martin is (there's a footballer name Dan Martin), but it's likely that the article is written in in-universe style. @pple 16:16, 17 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete per WP:V, and WP:RS. Could also be considered a WP:HOAX. Nen  yedi  • (Deeds•Talk) 16:19, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't think it's a hoax. Dream Team is a notable TV series. As I noted above, the article may be written in in-universe perspective, so it makes the readers confused with fiction and reality. However, it badly needs sources. @pple 16:36, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep and rewrite to meet standards. This is a character in Dream Team, a notable TV show. Darksun 16:26, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete fictional person with no real world coverage.  Just being a character on a TV show is not automatically notable.  Corpx 17:42, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge to Dream Team (TV series) or a list of Dream Team characters, unless reliable secondary sources can be found discussing the character. Note that I've got a fairly liberal interpretation of what constitute reliable secondary sources: any books on the series which discuss the character, or magazine articles in which the actor who plays the character or the series' writers or producers discuss the character would suffice. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 22:35, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
