Reptar

Delete or Merge. I don't see anywhere of more than one character in SpongeBob SquarePants or The Fairly OddParents having their own pages. If the result is merge, merge to List of Rugrats characters. Marcus2 (talk) 15:42, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete because it'll likely get undone by a slobbering fanboy if redirected. There are no out of universe sources for the character. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 16:47, 27 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Merge to a list of Rugrats characters. This and the other nominations around it all belong in a list of Rugrats characters (as many movies, movie series, and TV series have such lists.  I don't see why Rugrats wouldn't qualify for such a list).Tyrenon (talk) 20:23, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep and add sourcing and commentary. Merge as a last resort, it seems large enough for a standalone article. While there are no standalone SpongeBob SquarePants for main characters, there are for many others including Moe Szyslak and Kenny McCormick. Choosing SpongeBob SquarePants and ignoring Simpsons is called the Strawman fallacy. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 20:37, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment. Could we merge the batch of Rugrats debates into a single one?  All of the debates are getting the same comments unless someone only remarks on a single one.Tyrenon (talk) 03:07, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep. This one has actually been made into an amusement park ride at multiple parks.  See Rugrats Runaway Reptar.  Sincerely, --A NobodyMy talk 22:56, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep The character was notable enough to have their own amusement ride made at various parks. Honestly now.  You can't get more famous than that.  The character has also appeared in the extremely popular long running cartoon series Rugrats, and in their movie, plus I believe there is a toy you can buy.

 * Keep Amusement park note suggests ample out-of-universe material. A Principal character. Casliber (talk · contribs) 08:54, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep - Most of these are notable, and some aren't. I don't have the time, inclination, or lexisnexis account needed to turn them into GAs, but it's possible. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 05:39, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep having your own ride qualifies you as pretty darn notable. Artw (talk) 23:13, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep an amusement park ride? Pretty notable per above. Valley2 city ‽ 23:24, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
