Disputed prod, though no reason was given for the dispute. Originally prod'ed as "No evidence of real world notability, no reliable sources cited. Has been tagged as of questionable notability for two years." Delete. J Milburn (talk) 11:20, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete A minor character without good sources to support notability. Dwanyewest (talk) 17:29, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Weak Keep Add more sources and cleanup and before long it will be a decent article. or you could redirect it (if there is one) to a list of minor marvel characters. Goldblooded (talk) 19:33, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Do you have any sources or any evidence that this character is notable? If so, your first suggestion would be reasonable. Do you know of an appropriate list to redirect this article to? If so, your second suggestion would be. As it is, your suggestions aren't particularly useful- the point is that there are no sources, and there is nowhere that this information belongs.

Comment Well i dont sit around watching transformers so i wouldnt know but what i DO know is that in many TV shows such as doctor who or simpsons they usually have an article named List of minor characters in _______ if they is one for transformers or mavel universe or whatever its called they i recommend you redirect this article to there.

 * If you can find an appropriate one, so be it. J Milburn (talk) 21:02, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
 * There would seem to be that list here: List_of_characters_in_Transformers_comics. Mathewignash (talk) 16:01, 16 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Merge, see above to see where. Mathewignash (talk) 18:16, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete: No evidence that the fictional character meets the general notability guideline and the content of the article is a plot-only description of a fictional work without reception, significance or real-world context for the character. A search engine test does not show reliable secondary sources independent of the subject to presume that this minor character deserves a stand-alone article. Jfgslo (talk) 01:21, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment, it makes no sense to delete this article if one takes WP:BEFORE #5 into account. You should always see if a non-notable article can be merged or redirected before it's deleted. Mathewignash (talk) 02:22, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
