Citing Articles for deletion/Argiris Karras as precedent, actors who are only notable for their appearance on "Degrassi: The Next Generation", and have little (ie. IMDb) to none sources, should be redirected to List of Degrassi: The Next Generation characters. 117Avenue (talk) 22:10, 28 July 2010 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Speedy keep. The cited "precedent" resulted in a redirect without deletion; therefore, there is no basis for bringing the matter to AFD rather than pursuing normal editorial processes. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 17:31, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

Delete and, of course, Redirect. Precedent relevant and applicable. --Griseum (talk) 12:33, 5 August 2010 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:12, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep and redirect - There is no deletion argument here at all, this is an editorial process to redirect the article.  GB fan  talk 06:50, 5 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Second relist rationale. The article is a BLP. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:13, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete and re-direct per nom. Me-123567-Me (talk) 21:03, 14 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Redirect, but not with a deletion – The subject has not received sufficient coverage to warrant a separate article, but I don't recommend deleting the verifiable information contained in the article. If more coverage appears, it will be a good basis to revive and expand the article. Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 23:01, 14 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete and re-direct - 9 Google News Archive hits but, other than his network bio, the articles are all about the Degrassi show or the Soundspeed band. -- A. B. (talk • contribs) 02:28, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Redirect - I am repeating my argument from below, but I have independantly assessed this article too. Notability appears to be insufficient for a standalone article at this time, but I can't see why admin tools are needed here. How does deleting the history of this article assist anyone? If improperly recreated, the redirect can be protected, otherwise, if better sources appear the history could be useful. There's no case for deletion here at all.
