This character does not establish notability independent of its series. Without coverage in reliable third party sources, it is just made up of unnecessary plot summary and original research. TTN (talk) 18:45, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

• Delete & redirect to List of Degrassi: The Next Generation characters. The character isn't notable per guidelines to warrant an individual article. RMHED (talk) 18:51, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
• Merge and relevant information into List of Degrassi: The Next Generation characters or the actor/actress's main article. iMatthew (talk) 19:19, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
• Keep major characters should have an article. The understanding of the topic is helped by some recapitulation of the plot, which can, of course, be sourced from the work itself. I see no OR. The series is composed of the characters & plot, and the N is composite, and not distinguishable--the GNG is not rationally applicable to fictional characters, and there isn't any agreed alternative, but common sense would suggest at least to me that merge is appropriate for minor, but not major characters to prevent the article from being unwieldy. It's really just a format question, though. Even If one does not want to do this, then an extended discussion of the characters should be merged into the list--devoting similar space to minor and major characters is not rational article writing. But in any case, a redirect from the names of at least major characters is essential. Hence, I think nominating multiple articles of this sort when merging or redirection would do is excessive, and, when carried out in bulk this way, I suggest should be viewed as disruptive. My opinion. And my apology for copying this into the other delete proposals for the major characters, but the exact same argument applies. DGG (talk) 22:55, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
• Merge anything verifiable into the list per iMatthew. (Note that as things stand, that is a "delete", because there are no sources at all on the article. Stifle (talk) 14:33, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Fictional characters-related deletion discussions. -- Fabrictramp | talk to me 17:38, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
• Merge anything of worth into a/the List of characters. Completely unsourced, article is a fine example of what wikipedia is not for (WP:NOT#PLOT). – sgeureka ^t•c 18:52, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
• Keep - Main character from major Canadian show with a large number of featured article/lists. It will be gotten to eventually. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 22:44, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
• Keep or merge per everyone, notable unoriginal research verified in reliable sources. Needs to exist in some capacity. Also per boilerplate nomination “rationales” across multiple AfDs.--209.247.22.85 (talk) 00:22, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
