This is a lengthy article about a baby from General Hospital. The article currently consists of unsourced plot summaries about what the adults surrounding him have done. After attempting to redirect it twice to General Hospital, an editor has reverted me twice. I have now brought it here for larger community input.

 * Comment. This page's history is incredibly tangled, as it looks like an anon did a copy/paste move in September 2007, and nobody caught it. The General Hospital character that is being discussed is also known as Jake Spencer, in case anyone is confused. --Elonka 23:02, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete non-notable baby. Baby? Yes, a baby. Sigh. Gwernol 23:51, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Redirect Technically, you want 30 or RfC, not Afd. But in practice, I suppose AfD does serve to force things like this--let us consider closing as Redirect-- it actually is in practice a variant of delete. DGG (talk) 04:33, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of General Hospital characters. The character himself is definitely notable within the universe of the series due to his parentage, but obviously is undeserving of his own article. Such redirects have become a common practice for fictional characters from soaps to Star Wars. AniMate's previous attempts to redirect were thwarted by an editor who has now been admonished and blocked for unacceptable behavior, I don't see why a redirect can't be attempted again. &mdash; TAnthonyTalk 05:10, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete and redirect to stop the article from being recreated through reverts. The article is just a lot of plot (WP:NOT) with little hope for improvement per lack of sources. – sgeureka t•c 12:09, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
