The result was speedy keep. I'm closing as Speedy Keep per SK1 as 1. Nominator hasn't searched for anything and 2. AFD isn't a clean up solution! (non-admin closure) – Davey 2010 Talk 00:13, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment: A robust, good-faith nomination might have mentioned the possibility of a merge and redirest to List of minor characters in the Matrix series and that this was one of a series of related nominations. Stuartyeates (talk) 21:40, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep. Many of the Matrix characters nominated in this group probably belong on the list, but I think there's plenty of evidence that Neo is a notable archetype. "Neo" is not the easiest name to search, but, for example, the exploratory search phrase "like Neo in the Matrix" yields 100+ hits in GNews and 70+ in GScholar as well as lots of suggestive results in Google and GBooks.

 * Keep there is lots of content in google about this topic. Stuartyeates (talk) 04:47, 13 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep because the character is notable, and the article can be improved through editing. AfD is not for cleanup. Erik II (talk &#124; contrib) (ping me) 16:45, 13 September 2015 (UTC)
