This list is completely unsourced or cited to primary sources, and cannot meet the WP:GNG. Combining random non-notable minor characters into a singular list gives you a non-notable list. Whichever characters do meet the WP:GNG are already listed under the List of Peanuts characters article, and this WP:CONTENTFORK does not meet our encyclopedic standards.

Delete as creator. The few characters that are worth mentioning can be mentioned within the main character list or the main article. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 19:47, 8 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete If a list says "minor characters", it probably isn't notable in modern-day Wikipedia. This article is no exception and fails GNG._{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 20:38, 8 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - no evidence of real world significance or notability Spiderone 21:33, 8 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The Little Red-Haired Girl is the only one of any real significance that I can see, and she's already listed in List of Peanuts characters#Unseen characters. Possibly merge Eudora? Clarityfiend (talk) 23:23, 8 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - I don't really have a vote, but I would like to point out that "Minor character = Not notable" is a fallacy. There are a lot of minor characters that meet GNG, and there are a lot of major characters with little to no coverage. Be mindful of this when nominating "List of minor [X] characters" lists.

This is why I gave the caveat that some can be combined to the main page. For instance, Charlotte Braun only had a couple appearances but she has been widely documented. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 16:32, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - None of the characters listed here are individually notable, with the exception of a couple that are already covered elsewhere (The Great Pumpkin, the Little Red-Haired Girl). There are no real sources that I can find that cover this grouping of minor and background characters, either, so it fails WP:LISTN. As none of the information here appears to be reliably sourced (its either primary sources or non-reliable sources like blogs), there is nothing that should be merged.

Delete. As a rule of thumb, any list of minor elements is a list of lowest denomination WP:TRIVIA and needs to go. This list is a good example. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 07:16, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per everyone above. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 19:21, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per Wikipedia:Content forking. Unnecessary fandom-like list/article. List of Peanuts characters could cover such content. --Wario-Man (talk) 11:54, 15 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
