List of Bitag characters

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Completing nomination on behalf of IP editor. Rationale: BLAR was contested by Materialscientist. Currently the list fails WP:NLIST, WP:FANCRUFT and WP:INDISCRIMINATE, which is entirely unsourced for the over 14 years. Qwaiiplayer (talk) 12:19, 4 April 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete These are real people in a consumer advocacy/law enforcement program. They aren't characters! The caught criminals are in a very real prison and aren't taking off their makeup and going back home at the end of the day. What in the bleepity bleep is going on with this article that the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency is described as a 'character' in a real investigative television series?! Nuke this article from orbit, I'm embarassed I even have to vote on this at all to be removed.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 16:52, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment Also I don't think Materialscientist was contesting the nomination, just reverting the uncommented redirection per BLAR for clarity.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 20:46, 4 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Bitag, due to the fact, the rogue galllery of criminals have been mentioned in this program are been fall under WP:BLPCRIME and WP:BIO1E, when in fact the rogue gallery section including Baywalk Triads, Road Eye Towing Services and Maranaw Bus Posse, are real-life criminals and corrupt organizations, which the endtag in the segment says "The suspects have been saw are remained INNOCENT unless they have proven guilty in courts." The factions sections are the PDEA and PNP are law enforcement agencies while the Philippine Coast Guard is an agency attached by Philippine Transportation Department, to monitor maritime in the Philippines. So redirect to the TV program, which is per WP:ATD. 2600:1700:9BF3:220:F5BA:731B:AECA:EC01 (talk) 17:31, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment Doesn't matter. They're real people. They're not fictional characters. This is 100% unsourced natter and not only incorrectly named, but if there's a presumption of innocence for anyone arrested on this and they were exonerated, then this information describing them shouldn't be here at all and is an incredible violation of our WP:BLP policies.

 * Delete rather than redirect as this is a major case of BLP violations, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 22:14, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
 * This was tagged for speedy deletion. I do not think it is a case where immediate WP:CSD deletion and overruling this AFD is necessary, so I have reverted the tag. However, I agree the page should be deleted (long time unsourced, possible BLP issues). —Kusma (talk) 22:28, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete: WP:INDISCRIMINATE. SeanJ 2007 (talk) 04:34, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete. For the non-Filipinos out there: this article is just like an indiscriminate listing of every regular audience member in every Jerry Springer or Maury season. I don't think none of the persons named in this listicle would even be considered notable to the general Filipino public. --- Tito Pao (talk) 07:17, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment That's what I kind of got the gist of, that the show calls these 'characters' more than actual people like trash talk shows in the US and South American/Mexican variety shows (where the regular cast exaggerates certain characteristics). Still a really bad description of real people though on the show's part.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 15:33, 5 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Speedy Delete & Salt: As per nom. Macktheknifeau (talk) 11:23, 5 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. Horrible dehumanizing article. These are real people not some Pokemons or Batman villains. -- Lenticel ( talk ) 02:08, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete not redirect, major BLP violations. Galobtter (pingó mió) 07:58, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
