 * Weak Keep - I've never watched nor have any interest in the programme, but I know many programmes have wiki articles associated with fictional characters and for all intents and purposes, this is reasonably well written. The character is no less notable than the other wiki articles for other characters of this programme. An AfD of this nature should instead consider every character of a programme for a wider discussion of notability, rather than singling out just one.

 * A partial merge to List of The Sarah Jane Adventures minor characters would make more sense than deletion. There are a lot of media things covering Dr Who but not sure how many extend to SJA. --Colapeninsula (talk) 10:40, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Whilst it makes no difference to me personally, the only reason I didn't suggest a merge was due to a) the amount of prose that someone would have to condense and b) whether the character is significant enough to warrant not being on a minor characters article.

 * Agree with partial Merge - the plot summary stuff detailing each appearance is best left to individual episode summaries though, if of importance there. Artw (talk) 15:06, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep - Mr Smith is an important character in the show, often aiding the gang in their adventures. He has just as much, if not more, relevance than the likes of Sky Smith - who has her own page despite appearing in 3 stories. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7F:281A:8F00:F12C:61B7:F0AE:88E2 (talk) 12:02, 4 August 2017 (UTC)
