Jordan Todd (Criminal Minds)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Biography of a minor character in a television drama series, written entirely in-universe with no real-world context for why she would be a notable character and no reliable sourcing -- the only "references" here are circular citations to the plot descriptions in the show's Wikipedia episode list, not actual media coverage. I'm not convinced that a character who appeared in just four episodes of a TV series that's had over 300 episodes to date (and is still on the air, so that number is going to get even larger) is even significant enough to warrant a redirect to the character list -- so I'm proposing deletion, but I'd be willing to accept it if consensus lands on redirection instead. Either way, however, there's no properly demonstrated or properly sourced reason for a standalone article here. Unfortunately, however, there's a bigger problem brewing: I just checked the fifteen other characters in this franchise who have standalone biography articles linked in Criminal Minds, and virtually none of them is showing any real-world context or citing very much significant non-circular sourcing either.

 * Redirect to List_of_Criminal_Minds_characters. Main characters have some precedence in keeping, but minor characters should just redirect to the master list. Would be willing to delete if there are no articles linking to this one. 400spartans (talk) 22:08, 3 May 2019 (UTC)

 * Redirect to List_of_Criminal_Minds_characters. Both the nom and the above editor make the case quite clearly. Not enough real world notability to show they pass WP:GNG. Onel 5969  TT me 14:42, 4 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Redirect Nothing to add that Onel, Bearcat, and Coolabhapple haven't already said as to why this is the correct WP:ATD. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 01:20, 5 May 2019 (UTC)
