This article has been mostly unsourced since its creation eight years ago. Some of it is cited to Twitter and Instagram, plus three sources that tell us that one of the characters is inspired by Martha Stewart. This fails WP:GNG (and is a fork of the equally badly sourced article List of Orange Is the New Black characters). Jontesta (talk) 23:40, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This article is what Wikipedia is not, a massive list of minor characters. There is already a character list; any character who is actually relevant to readers should be mentioned there, minus the cruft. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 06:17, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with List of Orange Is the New Black characters: This article feels unnecessary when there is already an article which details all the main characters. I suggest just merging this article into that one, and remove the unnotable (WP:N) characters. —Mjks28 (talk) 08:20, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete: just looks to be a retelling of individual plots, precisely what we're WP:NOT. -- D'n'B-t -- 09:46, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This material would be better used for an Orange Is The New Black Wiki page, not Wikipedia itself. TH1980 (talk) 00:28, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Subject does not have the requisite sourcing to meet the WP:NLIST. I'd encourage the article creator and any other interested editors to WP:TRYANOTHER. Let'srun (talk) 01:21, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
