Q (video game character)
Minor character from the Street Fighter video game. Hardly anything is known about Q, even his/her sex. JamesBurns 07:00, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, even if little is known about Q people will still want to look him/her up. Could be merged somewhere. Kappa 07:30, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, but only if the sentence "little is known about Q" is removed along with the fan speculation. We only need the facts. If it's got authorative sources, I might go along with the speculation too as long as it's put in a section named as such. Mgm|(talk) 07:32, May 30, 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge and Redirect to Street Fighter III, per WP:FICT. He doesn't appear outside of that game, and certainly doesn't transcend it. A Man In Black 08:18, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge and Redirect as per MIB. &mdash; Phil Welch 09:41, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * weak keep, no need to merge... it might not be a particularly notable character, but the page has the potential to be expanded and someone, somewhere may eventually want to read this article.... UkPaolo 16:20, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * The usual fancruft. Delete or merge. Martg76 21:29, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, might be expanded into a short article in the future. --Sn0wflake 23:36, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep Video game character. Klonimus 07:50, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete or merge; unimportant outside of one videogame, and apparently not particularly central to that context either CDC   (talk)  16:06, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Strong merge and redirect to Street Fighter III, per WP:FICT. If "hardly anything is known about Q", then there is no potential for encyclopedic expansion, and no reason to keep a separate article.  Barely worthy of merging even for SF3 fans; almost a delete case.  Barno 20:06, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge and Redirect What's there is not an article and it may never be. If it outgrows Street Fighter III it can be an article on its own.  Vegaswikian 02:10, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Move to 'list of minor characters' article, or make one if it doesn't exist. Merge and redirect. Deus Ex 00:31, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete minor character not inherently notable, games cruft. Megan1967 03:47, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete minor video game character. Very little potential for expansion. Leanne 10:24, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep There might not much info, but the article should stay.
 * Keep Q deserves to have an article.
 * Merge and redirect either as per A Man In Black or Deus Ex. I don't much care which; they're both good ideas. The list of minor characters might simply be made part of the Street Fighter III article. &mdash;chris.lawson (talk) 05:39, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep I think the article should stay.
