Mister Overboiled Lettuce
Short bio of a fictional character from a Swedish-language programme. Much as I'd like to fight systemic bias, there is no evidence this programme has been seen in the English-speaking world, and even if it had this article would be appropriate to merge to it (no such article exists). There is apparently an article in sv.wikipedia. - Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] (W) AfD? 13:44, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, but only because there's no article about Varan-TV itself. A show is more notable than any of its characters. If someone writes Varan-TV I might change my vote. &mdash; J I P | Talk 13:57, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
 * I don't know about a show being more notable than any of its characters - I'd say Superman is more notable than Smallville. Now, we're not dealing with anything remotely analogous to that here, of course, but I don't see why this shouldn't be moved to Varan-TV and used as a basis for an article on the program in general. &mdash; Haeleth Talk 18:25, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete ......do we have any reason to believe this is even a real program and not a joke?? The person who posted the article is also responsible for such dubious gems as Navid Soltani and AIK Bowling. - wikipediatrix 18:24, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * If you see the Swedish article, there's a link to a picture of it. It looks like it's from SVT's official site, so it should be genuine. &mdash; J I P  | Talk 07:56, 16 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Per Wikipediatrix's comment above, I poropose to merge and redirect the AIK Bowling stub to AIK, as it is pointlessly small at present and of questionable independent significance anyway. - Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] (W) AfD? 11:23, 16 November 2005 (UTC)
 * AfDs aren't the place to discuss articles other than those which are nominated for deletion. Please discuss AIK Bowling on its own talk page or AfD discussion. &mdash; J I P  | Talk 19:27, 16 November 2005 (UTC)
 * You don't say. All I wanted to find out was if I'd be shouted down.  Since nobody has done so, I have initiated the appropriate action. - Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] (W) AfD? 12:30, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
