Jay Gridley
Delete: non-notable father of a computer game programmer. Redirect to Tom Clancy's Net Force. I should have checked linked articles, my bad. Cleduc 09:09, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. You'd almost think this could be speedy. —Cleared as filed. 09:18, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Per Joaquin Murietta's note below, I change my vote to redirect to Tom Clancy's Net Force. —Cleared as filed. 09:25, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Very gracious of you both, but, tomorrow, please reconsider whether this merits more than a redirect. Several of the fictional characters have their own articles, cluding some listed in TCNF, and Jay Gridley is a central character. Regards! Joaquin Murietta 09:35, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Which ones? They all seem to be red links except this one.  In any case, there isn't much to the article, so it wouldn't seem to need its own article unless it's heavily expanded. —Cleared as filed. 09:59, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Well, three reasons to keep it --  this is a non-controversial series of novels, insofar as young people have posted these topics, I'd like to encourage them to use Wikipedia, and also if books like Bush on the Couch can survive AfD merely because they are controversial, maybe we should allow the non-controversial to  take root?

 *  Keep, he is a central fictional character in the Net Force series by Tom Clancy. See my slight edit to this article. Joaquin Murietta 09:21, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
