Max (Flight of the Navigator)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Does not meet notability guidelines. Article contains no information that can not be found in the Flight of the Navigator article. Jedzz (talk) 09:45, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Speedy Redirect to Flight of the Navigator. Simon-in-sagamihara (talk) 12:58, 6 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete Just a retelling of the story, although it was a good movie which most people missed. Steve Dufour (talk) 13:35, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete One-off character of a movie that had no significant impact. Even if it wasn't pure plot (WP:NOT), all descriptions should be added to the article of the fictional work where the character originates. Not a plausible search term. – sgeureka t•c 08:10, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete The article is a plot-only description of a fictional work and it does not have third-party sources to verify notability. The article doesn't even have a single source and it's an unneeded content fork of the article Flight of the Navigator. The topic itself does not meet the criteria of the general notability guideline. Jfgslo (talk) 16:03, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Merge/Redirect to Flight of the Navigator as a reasonable search term. Does not nmerit a stand-alone article.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 10:02, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Merge/Redirect to Flight of the Navigator, seems to be a bio on a character who was the star of a film, so why isn't it on the film page? Mathewignash (talk) 20:43, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Indeed... I think Max may have nearly as many lines as his human co-star, and nearly as much screen time. A merge will definitely improve the parent article.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 22:40, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't think it even needs to be merged with the main article — it would just be bloat. Most of the information in this article is already there, and what isn't is not particularly interesting. Jedzz (talk) 08:38, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
 * If there was so much sourcable information that independent notability could be established, a standalone would serve and we would not be having this discussion. As there is not, a careful pruning before a merge would be the editorial answer, as the main article is the place for readers to find this information.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 10:31, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Clarification: Sorry for not being clearer on this: I think this article should be outright deleted because there is no sourced information and the subject is not notable. A merge would be pointless, in my opinion, because almost all of the information in this article is already covered or mentioned in the movie article. Jedzz (talk) 19:28, 12 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete per lack of notability independent of the film. The character's in-universe actions are covered in the film article's plot summary, and any out-of-universe details can be covered in the film article. I support deletion because it is not a reasonable search term. Erik (talk &#124; contribs) 17:10, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
