Lack of independent sources to justify notability and should be deleted alongside Dr. Theopolis and Twiki Dwanyewest (talk) 01:48, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

Comment While I can't claim enough knowledge of deletion standards regarding television shows to put in a strong vote, the inclusion of fringe characters from every television show does not seem encyclopedic. Nwlaw63 (talk) 04:11, 24 August 2013 (UTC)
 * The issue is really whether to keep as an independent article or merge to a parent subject. Deletion is not an appropriate outcome for a significant character in such a popular and enduring TV series. Candleabracadabra (talk) 14:03, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

I am willing to accept this article being merged into Buck Rogers in the 25th Century (TV series) as a compromise but it doesn't have any independent sources to justify its notability as a solo article. Dwanyewest (talk) 14:36, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

 * So just merge it already and we really don't need to be at AfD for this unless someone has undone your merge. Be WP:BOLD and do the right thing, and someone else will revert if they disagree, and then we can come here and discuss it. Jclemens (talk) 06:05, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
