Piotr Skut

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Extremely minor character who doesn't need their own article, especially one with so much original research. PROD-tag was removed because "[thinks] Piotr Skut deserves an article" = WP:ILIKEIT ╟─ Treasury  Tag ►  Regent  ─╢ 07:12, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to List of the Adventures of Tintin characters - Despite some extensive good faith searches (I would have liked to be able to save this one!) I am unable to find anything constituting (a) significant, rather than trivial, coverage of this character, or (b) evidence of the character having independent notability, rather than merely notability in the context of the work he appears in. Double fail of WP:N. Merge and redirect back to List of the Adventures of Tintin characters, which it was apparently spun out from.- DustFormsWords (talk) 07:23, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
 * By the way, "I think Piotr Skut deserves an article" could just as easily be a lazy way of saying "I believe on any common sense view Piotr Skut should be considered notable" or "I believe the material here is large enough to make it impractical to keep in the existing article". Both potentially viable arguments.  Assume good faith. - DustFormsWords (talk) 07:28, 24 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Merge and redirect per Dustformswords, Skut is not a major character but there is a blank space in the character list where this info can go. Normally merging uncited material is a bad idea, but there's nothing problematic here. Someoneanother 16:33, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to List of the Adventures of Tintin characters. Piotr Skut is not an "extremely minor" character. He's not a main character by any means, but I think an "extremely minor" character would be one who appeared in the background of one panel - not one who had a major role in two albums. Probably not worth an article all to himself, but very much worth a paragraph or a few in a list article, and a redirect to there. The original research about his name should be removed and only his role in the two albums should be kept. J I P  | Talk 18:31, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
