The result was no consensus. WP:FICTION clearly says this structure is preferred. The article is obviously not in an ideal state, but deleting it would make us farther from the ideal, not closer. Mango juice talk 15:54, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete, listcruft. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 03:50, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Listcruft is an essay, not a policy or guideline. Therefore it is not a valid reason for deletion. The Transhumanist (talk) 22:32, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I don't think he was citing that specific page as something that would indicate delation, or even citing that page at all. Even if he was, that's nothing more than "I agree with what's being said on this page", which is a valid way to present an argument in AfD. -- Ned Scott 03:11, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Merge into Sealab 2021, sub-article doesn't establish notability on its own.  Altairisfar talk  04:32, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep this is the preferred way to do it, rather than have separate articles for each of them. The individual characters dont have to be notable, its jusfged together with the main article.DGG (talk) 17:38, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete No secondary sources to establish notability or provide real world context for "Minor characters in Sealab 2021". All articles are judged independently at AFD and must have sources themselves. A list is not the preferred way to deal with information that cannot be properly sourced, deletion is. To make a list of "things", "things" must be collectively notable. Jay32183 (talk) 22:16, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Rebuild as List of Sealab 2021 characters, with the major characters placed on it. 132.205.44.5 (talk) 23:19, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
 * The major characters already has a mention in the parent page. Secret account 04:50, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Most of this information is very trivial. I'm not even sure you can call some of them characters. Even the ones that might warrant a mention in some way could likely be summarized from scratch easily enough. I support either deletion or redirecting. -- Ned Scott 03:14, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep per DGG. This is what we want folks.  That said, as Ned Scott notes, this thing is currently a list of minor "everything" and needs serious cleanup.  But cleanup isn't a valid reason to delete. 68.40.58.255 (talk) 12:56, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Can you give a policy based reasoning please? Secret account 21:25, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete poorly sourced, mostly trivia. Mr.  Z- man  04:38, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
