Keep - The character is a major character in a televison series that spanned 87 episodes and has had a significant role in another. The character is clearly notable, the article just lacks some appropriate referencing but AfD is not for cleanup. --AussieLegend (✉) 05:51, 20 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
For fictional characters, appearing in something notable is not enough. They must have sources to establish their notability outside of the media they are from. Taylor Trescott - ^{my talk} + _{my edits} 15:06, 20 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It's the characters that make the program notable. Take the character away and you have a program that wouldn't even get to pilot stage. --AussieLegend (✉) 11:43, 21 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Merge to List of recurring characters in The Suite Life of Zack & Cody or create new list for main cast. The character does not have significant coverage as required by the WP:GNG. Even fewer hits on Google News than the others. I don't see any indication that these characters are notable. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 01:25, 28 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

While sources are lacking now, this is because both series have ended and the sources are now dead. At the time the series' were in production, there were plenty available. The keep votes reflect WP:NTEMP. Deletion would require a new list, as the character appeared in two different series. --AussieLegend (✉) 02:10, 28 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Keep per AussieLegend - The character is notable, AFD'ing a page per WP:IDONTLIKEIT is bad faith! ..... →Davey2010→→Talk to me!→ 15:11, 6 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or perhaps merge if there is a problem with the sources--no point n losing the material we do have. DGG ( talk ) 01:15, 8 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
