Robert Hawkins (Jericho character)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Tagged for a considerable time as needing reliable third party sources. Consists entirely of primary sourced material and plot summary with no evidence of notability independent of the series. McWomble (talk) 05:00, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Merge the important stuff from this article into List of Jericho characters. Somno (talk) 05:28, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Cut down on unverified plot summary and merge into List of Jericho characters until enough is verified for a separate article. - Mgm|(talk) 11:00, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
 * The discussion in Articles for deletion/Johnston Green showed that the best solution was to merge all the other characters and leave the two protagonists to have their one article. I am ok if we merge since none seems to can find any real world information but certainly don't delete because we need the redirects. -- Magioladitis (talk) 12:16, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Certainly keep the "character conception" while performing the merge. I added and it seems to be the only important real-world information there. -- Magioladitis (talk) 12:17, 30 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep but probably cut down on the plot summary (it seems a bit excessive). As Magioladitis said, the previous discussion decided that it was best for the two main characters (Jake and Robert) to have their own articles, while everyone else is in List of Jericho characters.  I do agree though in the need to cut down on the plot summary.  -- Imperator3733 (talk) 20:14, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment I am nominating for deletion many article myself every day but I think this is not the case to delete. I think we can find real world information for these two characters. If we fail then we can merge. But the last time I found two interviews of the second main character just by google searching. -- Magioladitis (talk) 23:27, 30 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep but cleanup or merge Seems to be covered in some sources. The article should be trimmed down to meet the guideline for writing about fiction.  I'm not opposed to a merger into a list. Protonk (talk) 23:52, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Trim the plot summary, but otherwise this is a major character in a major series (which is getting replayed in prime time on another network than it originated on, which is almost unheard of). Jake and Robert are the two key characters in this series, so it's justified to give them their own articles. 23skidoo (talk) 16:12, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment. And the reliable sources supporting notability of the character independent of the series are.....? McWomble (talk) 08:47, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Thi is an exceptionally important series, and the main characters are suitable for individual articles. How to edit them is for the article talk pages. DGG (talk) 19:22, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment. Jericho being an important series is not in question but notability of the series is not inherited by the characters. There is no evidence whatsoever of this character having any notability independent of the series. McWomble (talk) 08:47, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
