Only sources are primary, and article is written like an ad. Only other mentions online are on forums and by sellers.  Nolelover   Talk · Contribs  17:11, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete. I agree, I couldn't find any secondary sources, either. Lacking reliable independent secondary sources, the topic clearly fails WP:GNG.  Msnicki (talk) 18:11, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. I did some heavy editing of the article to try to take out the most unencyclopeic and promotional content and I have to say that there's absolutely no notability to this. It's basically a pair of shoes named after a cartoon character that the stores have created. While the shoes might sell well, that doesn't in itself give the brand notability. I wasn't able to find anything on the internet that proved that this is anything other than a brand that sells decently well enough. It might become notable in the future, but it certainly isn't right now. Tokyogirl79 (talk) 18:17, 3 December 2011 (UTC)tokyogirl79
 * Merge/Redirect content into the company's article C. & J. Clark. --Bob Re-born (talk) 21:27, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
 * But if we're gonna redirect, why wouldn't we redirect to Nickelodeon, the producer of the show. I would assume that more people are searching looking for that then the shoe.  Nolelover   Talk · Contribs  21:31, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment. From what I found on the internet, I don't think this is a character that Nickelodeon actually made. It seems more like it's a series of commercials that are similar to tiny episodes, but were created by Clarks and played quite often on the UK Nickelodeon. Nickelodeon might have had a hand in this at some point in time, but Jack Nano seems to be more associated with Clarks than with Nickelodeon.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 05:35, 4 December 2011 (UTC)tokyogirl79
 * Additional. I did a little more digging and it seems that this is most likely a character that Nickelodeon might have helped with and heavily promoted, but is still owned by Clarks. Everything I found refers to it more as a Clarks shoe character that shows or was hosted on Nickelodeon than an actual Nick show., The first link goes to the page of the person who designed the Jack Nano webpage that used to be hosted on the UK Nick page and he describes it as a Clarks character. The second link is to the Youtube Clark channel which refers to it in a possesive manner. The third link is to a random forum site that confirms that it was only a set of commercials, never a TV show. Tokyogirl79 (talk) 05:51, 4 December 2011 (UTC)tokyogirl79
 * Ahh, ok. In that case, a redirect is fine by me.  Nolelover   Talk · Contribs  03:19, 5 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete Not notable at all. No point in redirecting, as the character is not mentioned in either of the articles suggested as redirect targets, and is not significant enough to need mentioning there. JamesBWatson (talk) 11:22, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
