FBI on The Sopranos

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Appears to be entirely original research. Maybe there's a Sopranos wiki for this somewhere? Bdb484 (talk) 20:48, 20 February 2010 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Tim Song (talk) 05:05, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - I can see the concern, and there is some language that needs to be removed, not to mention a complete lack of sourcing, but I'm inclined to give room to these sorts of articles when they involve high-profile long running shows. There are already character pages for most major, and some mid-level characters. Having all of the FBI characters in one list is much more useful than having individual pages.

 * Keep It is easy to find substantial sources for this such as . See Google Books for many more.  The article should be kept for further work in accordance with our editing policy.  As this source has been added to the article, pd_THOR's comments are now obsolete. Colonel Warden (talk) 11:11, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Keep lists of characters on fictional topics are acceptable, and The Sopranos has been the topic of published books which cover the characters rather thoroughly. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  15:40, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete This isn't a list of characters; this is a synthesis of a list of characters with a running theme of the show. Pretty much the definition of original research, absent actual citations in the article's text from sources that would make this a viable article. Townlake (talk) 19:04, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Significant  major theme from very major series.    DGG ( talk ) 04:22, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
