List of fictional characters on the autistic spectrum
Obviously a violation of WP:NOR, WP:NOT and a lot of it is just assumed or ex post facto armchair diagnosis of a fictional character - something that is obviously crazy.

 * Strong keep: The article is only supposed to be used for fictional characters that have been described by the authors as being on the autistic spectrum. It is not suposed to be used for speculation or original research. I have removed the unsourced entries from the list. Q0 19:25, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - sourced, encyclopaedic. Not sure what else, but it's pretty good per WP:LIST - if there's an unsourced entry you can always excise it, but AfD isn't cleanup.  Please don't treat it as such. WilyD 19:31, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong keep:There are a few bad entries so remove the bad entries, don't throw thee baby out with the bathwater.Sith Lord 13 22:08, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, just like last time. Pburka 13:32, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Note that the nominator may be a sock puppet. The account was only created yesterday and has only been used to post AfDs and topless pictures. Pburka 23:58, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep: After Q0's edit it seems to now be well sourced. I don't see the point in removing it. Raoul 17:49, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong keep, per all of the above comments. --Supermath 22:41, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
