 * Delete as per nom - if we ever get an article on The Ruby Dice it will mention him, but he isn't a generally notable character and as Jack says, no sources. Dougweller (talk) 08:58, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Changing to Keep Central character in a series that has won severalawards, including two Nebula Awards. Edward321 (talk) 02:46, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep as on of the central characters of the Saga of the Skolian Empire series. Otherwise merge per previous editor. Debresser (talk) 18:42, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
 * merge Any non-trivial character in a notable work should at least have a single line description in a list, and a redirect to it.  Any significant character should get a one or two paragraph description.   We're here to provide encyclopedic information--and if the main work is worth covering in the first place, people are likely to want some degree of detail. Why else would you use an encyclopedia  in the first place, if you didn't want detailed coverage?  And,   there is no   valid reason why there should not at least be a redirect.    Anything anyone might want to look up should have a redirect if there's relevant content in Wikipedia.  DGG (talk) 00:44, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge to relevant articles about the book series. Probably doesn't pass notability on its own, but certainly important enough to an award-winning series that deletion seems extreme. –Drilnoth (T • C • L) 21:37, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete' - no evidence of notability outside the series; thus fails WP:NOT and WP:WAF. Savidan 17:40, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep as a WP:SS spinout, or alternatively merge per DGG. Jclemens (talk) 21:25, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete AfDs are not votes. This character fails to have real world notability. Article consists of pure plot regurgitation. Abductive (talk) 23:36, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep If the series is notable, then all the major characters in it are notable enough to have their own articles.  D r e a m Focus  21:03, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Character doesn't meet our notability guidelines as he hasn't been the subject of significant coverage in reliable, third party sources. Furthermore, the article is written entirely from an in-universe standpoint, violating the guidelines at WP:WAF.  This also contains no references for verification and it reads like original research.  I'm not confortable suggesting a merge as this currently violates two of our core content policies.
