Fails WP:PLOT and WP:GNG from what I can see. Minor character in the first film, second film was direct-to-video. Previous discussion was closed in 2008 as "no consensus" with "keep" !vote rationales like "there is a source" and "is a notable character".  Eagles   24/7  (C)  22:34, 4 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep: She's the love interest in the first novel and the film, and a main character in the second novel. I added information on her appearances in Disney comics, with a reference to the book Disney Comics: The Whole Story, an independent secondary source. I also added information from the book The Queens of Animation about the first female animator at Disney, who got her start by animating a scene with hunting dogs chasing Faline.

 * I also just added some information from the Encyclopedia of Walt Disney's Animated Characters, which spends about a page on an analysis of Faline's character from an out-of-universe, real world perspective. -- Toughpigs (talk) 06:34, 9 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Redirect to the original novel. Current sourcing is insufficient to establish notability. The sentence about the animator really has nothing at all to do with this character. TTN (talk) 12:08, 10 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Bambi, a Life in the Woods per TTN. The non-primary sources regarding the character herself are brief and do not support much beyond simple plot summary.  The one on the animator, while interesting, is really not about the character, who is barely mentioned in it.  Rorshacma (talk) 22:57, 10 January 2020 (UTC)
