Billie Keane

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Non-notable. Is a minor character on the show Oz (TV series), and doesn't even show up on List of Oz (TV series) characters. According to Jefferson Keane, the character Billie shows up in a few episodes in season 1, though List of Oz episodes doesn't list Billie at all. Furthermore, a Google search for "Billie Keane" oz shows few results that aren't wikipedia copies. -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 23:01, 2 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to List of Oz (TV series) characters? I find only minimal coverage of this character (as opposed to mentions in show coverage), and the current article is almost entirely in-universe plot summary. Looking at Template:Oz(HBO), however, it seems that there may be more than 100 similar articles about different characters from this show, which is out of keeping with the usual WP practices for coverage of fictional characters in TV series. WP:OTHERSTUFF notwithstanding, I don't see much point in whittling away one small piece of a complex encyclopedic structure, when it is the entire structure that needs to be evaluated. Maybe this should be discussed in broader terms in an appropriate forum about whether the great majority of those articles ought to be consolidated into the character list.--Arxiloxos (talk) 22:52, 8 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to List of Oz (TV series) characters. Wikipedia is WP:NOTJUSTPLOT, whereas this character has had nothing but plot summary written about them in reliable sources. Also a pretty minor character with only a few appearances. Better suited to a list than a full article. Shooterwalker (talk) 15:21, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
