 * Keep. Unless nom would like to explain how this list differs from the various other list of fictional characters already on WP, I'm not inclined to agree that this does not fit WP's standards of encyclopedic content. Context issues can be fixed by editing. hateless 04:53, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a reason to keep this article. These characters are not notable at all outside of the neopets universe. Pilotbob 16:56, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep: vast, vast website. Inherently notable. Could perhaps use some pruning of in-universe ideas, but is otherwise useful information. As to Pilotbob - there was a McDonald's promotion with these characters, I'm pretty sure if they offer them as Happy Meal toys then the characters are notable outside of the Neopets universe. Now, were this an article listing every storyline character on Neopets, then I'd be with you - that's unnecessary. But it isn't, so I vote to keep. &spades;P M C&spades; 23:49, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Have a look at WP:USEFUL.--Addhoc 13:08, 28 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete - I agree with Pilotbob. This article/list is not really a list of fictional characters, it is more like a fancrufty list of "species" within the website.  In addition, this article only contains 1 source other than the website itself, and also is mostly original research.  As for notability, it is not automatically inherited, even if Neopets is very notable. SmileToday☺(talk to me , My edits) 02:57, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete I second the deletion of this article, for the aforementioned reasons. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.188.211.198 (talk) 03:49, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - lack of independent reliable sources. Subject adequately covered by Neopets and Neopets Inc. articles. Addhoc 13:08, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
