Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Ivan Dobsky Tortures


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.  

The result was delete. In the interests of full transparency, however, the situation is a little more complex than a simple deletion. During the AfD, there was basically a cut-and-paste move of this content to Ivan Dobsky, which is currently a redirect to Monkey Dust; it appears that nothing was ever merged to that article, so there are no GFDL issues with deletion, in that respect. Since consensus has clearly deemed the content unsuitable for Wikipedia, I am going to: (1) repair the cut-and-paste move by merging the edit histories into one place at Ivan Dobsky, so that other administrators can more easily find the full history if needed; and then (2) delete the merged history, except for the redirect to Monkey Dust. So, to recap:


 * List of Ivan Dobsky Tortures will be history-merged to Ivan Dobsky.
 * The then-combined history of Ivan Dobsky will be deleted, except for the existing redirect.

List of Ivan Dobsky Tortures

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable and unencyclopedic topic. This is a list of funny quotes from a character in a TV show. The show has a page, and the character a nice sized section of that page. This list, however, does not deserve its own page. It has a lot of references, but they are mainly web forums. Man It&#39;s So Loud In Here 17:18, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Partial Merge I didn't know anything about the character, and from reading both the page in question and the page for the show (which is fairly comprehensive) I'd like to suggest merging, if not the complete list, a portion of it to Ivan's section of the main show article. The list allowed me to get a firmer understanding of the humor of the character. It could be handy if there was some use of these quotes in the show article. --Torchwood Who? 22:07, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Huh, now that the article is redirected maybe we should close the AFD? I was trying to find more sources of Ivan, but google is pretty dry... even google uk isn't flush with articles. I see the Ivan character IS popular based on the DVD box art, but it's hard to source the Ivan bio page.--Torchwood Who? 23:02, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Okay, now that the redirect has been changed again to just the Ivan section of the monkey dust article, I say Delete.--Torchwood Who? 19:15, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
