 * Comment While I'm not personally familiar with the characters, I've seen the author's name, and the list of novels involving these characters suggests that Wikipedia ought to cover them in some manner--even as just redirect(s) to the relevant section of the author's article. Any ideas or preferences? Jclemens (talk) 00:19, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
 * How about a redirect to Janwillem van de Wetering? --Ashershow1talk • contribs 23:04, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Merge & Redirect: Par down the excessive descriptions of the characters to the essence and put at the top of the above mentioned section. Hasteur (talk) 20:10, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect for the sake of building a consensus. Not enough significant coverage to WP:verify notability but maybe some of it can be salvaged as part of a broader notable article. Shooterwalker (talk) 03:44, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect for the moment. There's enough to constitute its own article eventually though: Grijpstra and De Gier is a series of Dutch novels, as well as a television series, so it's notable enough. Kusonaga (talk) 09:19, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
