Fails notability (check WP:FICT and WP:SOAPS). No media coverage, no third-party references, no real world information. A minor fictional character who made a short appearance in a show. Magioladitis (talk) 22:29, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete. I was able to find one secondary source, New Zealand Herald, but that was about all, no real significant discussion in independent sources. Cirt (talk) 11:17, 11 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Has independent sources. Clearly notabilty, remember that Wiki is free content and doesn't have firm rules per WP:FP. Testmasterflex (talk) 03:19, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
 * What about the fact that the character appeared for only some weeks in a long-running soap opera where hundreds of character's appear? Do we really expect anything more than plot in this article? We could think of converting to a redirect to List of Shortland Street characters in order to preserve edit history. But is it worth? The secondary source provided is not really important. If the character was a person I would say that "Wikipedia is not a memorial site" (per WP:MEMORIAL). -- Magioladitis (talk) 08:36, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Wait - I don't understand why you're invoking Featured Pictures. -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 03:56, 14 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete - Without coverage in reliable sources to assert notability independent from its series, it doesn't need separate coverage. TTN (talk) 19:29, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. FWIW, merging to List of Shortland Street characters doesn't seem to be an option, since that list is simply names.  The list has her name spelled "Lindsay". -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 03:56, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete or redirect per WP:NOT. His only claim to notability seems to be that he is an openly gay character on Shortland Street, but this isn't as special as it used to be 20 years ago. – sgeureka t•c 11:17, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
