The result was Delete. There is insufficient sourcing and notability for an independent article on this character, consensus agrees. The target for a redirect and merge is unclear (actor or series), even assuming one is warranted, which has not been shown. Xoloz (talk) 15:35, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

President Harris

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This is a character that does not have real world information to establish notability. The information is covered within the various film articles, and there is no current assertion for improvement. Also, several other character articles from this series have also been deleted. TTN (talk) 16:58, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep in all honesty, I think characters recurring in a couple of movies or books are notable. I think this bio is akin to the Simpsons character Kent Brockman or others.  Shiva eVolved  17:08, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Do you mean notable as in subjectively popular or as in that there are likely sources out there? If there were sources available, I'm pretty sure one of the three or four past AfDs would have shown them. TTN (talk) 17:15, 12 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete sorry - that Disco Stu example showed the fallacy of my previous reasoning.  Shiva eVolved  17:17, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not notable beyond film, and this information easily fits within the main articles. Xymmax (talk) 17:19, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete — not notable. --Jack Merridew 18:53, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge to Leslie Nielsen or to Scary Movie 4 Mandsford (talk) 19:19, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Fictional characters-related deletions.   —Quasirandom (talk) 20:12, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Not a notable enough character to warrant an article, and all relevant information has already been merged into Leslie Nielsen's article. Would need more sources of significance of character, impact on films, and sourced information. --Nehrams2020 (talk) 22:20, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep as it is a notable character in a notable series of movies played by a notable actor. Sincerely, --  Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles  Tally-ho! 18:30, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete: Per WP:FICTION -- Simple  Paradox   18:32, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
 * The article fails to demonstrate notability; I suggest deleting and then redirecting it to the first movie he appeared in; which would be 3, according to the article. I (talk) 23:39, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep this article is very well written, there's nothing wrong with it. Music1193,(Talk) 12:55, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Note to closing admin — see:, , where above is first signed as being by User:Music2611, but is actually by User:Music1193 and then anon User:85.191.41.117 changes it to the "correct" username. --Jack Merridew 13:52, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Leslie Nielsen. --Lockley (talk) 07:58, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
