Delete - no indication of any independent notability for this minor fictional character. Otto4711 (talk) 15:03, 30 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete No indication that oustise notability has been proven. A quick google search of the article title proves that the article recieves no coverage in non-fansite third party sources. Red  Thunder  15:18, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge If there's no independent notability, that only proves there's no reason to have a separate/independent article, but it doesn't mean it shouldn't be included in some way at all. - Mgm|(talk) 15:47, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete as an unsourced biography of an extremely minor fictional character. I do not support a merge because there is no sourced material that can be salvaged, and no target article into which to put it. Reyk  YO!  19:41, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Since when is MacGyver's character article, or the article for the tv series not a merge target? Mgm|(talk) 09:21, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Clutter up a half way decent article with a list of dozens of minor characters that doesn't belong there? Just so we can keep some unsourced fancruft in some form? No thanks. If this character could be shown to be notable enough within the series to warrant more than maybe a sentence, if there was any sourced material that could be put somewhere, and if there was something like a List of MacGyver characters (a kind of article I mistrust anyway because the potential for sprawling, unreferenced drivel is too great) then I'd reconsider.

 * Merge would probably be the sensisble way of dealing with this, as fof 95% of the hundreds of similar afds. 09:23, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge what little useful information there is. Ryan 4314   (talk) 19:11, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
