This character does not establish notability independent of its series. Without coverage in reliable third party sources, it is just made up of unnecessary plot summary and original research. TTN (talk) 22:23, 2 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete, as characters appearing in only a single work of fiction fail WP:FICT unless there is significant coverage of the character in reliable secondary sources. Since this article cites no sources, notability and verifiability cannot be established. It is merely an expanded plot summary and thus fails WP:NOT, as the character's role in the plot is already summarized in the article on the series itself. I do not think it likely that secondary sources exist which would establish this character's independent notability, so I support deletion. --IllaZilla (talk) 22:58, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Redirect no argument has been given against it, so i suppose the nom has none to offer. If he does accept redirect, that's what should have been proposed in the appropriate place; if he means delete, he should explain whya redirect is unsuitable. DGG' (talk) 02:45, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete as per IllaZilla. The series is notable; the character isn't. Optionally redirect to Brandy & Mr. Whiskers. Stifle (talk) 08:35, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Brandy & Mr. Whiskers, as this character isn't notable enough for his own article, and furthermore the main series article actually seems to contain more information on him! Bettia   (rawr CRUSH!)  11:34, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep due to disruptive copy and paste noms across multiple AfDs that only merit copy and paste replies and notability.--63.3.1.130 (talk) 15:14, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I assume the copy and paste noms are because the issues are the same in each case, so how is that disruptive?.Yobmod (talk) 15:18, 7 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete Non notable fictional character. The article has no sources, because no RS are interested in writing not trivial coverage, and nor should Wikipedia. If he is important in universe, then he should be sufficiently described in that article, not have a seperate one.Yobmod (talk) 15:18, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
