Article is about a creature in a television program that does not seem to be notable enough to merit an article of its own. It seems like just mentioning it in the article of the programs would be sufficient. Nick—^Contact/_Contribs 04:18, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to main TV show article, or character list article, as appropriate. Easy call. This is a minor character in a TV show with no independent notability. Article could be deleted, but a better call would be to redirect it to the main show article, or to a character list for that show if appropriate. The advantage of a redirect is that it has a lower likelyhood of recreation in the future, as it directs editors to edit the more appropriate articles instead. --Jayron32.talk.contribs 05:47, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. If notability can't be established, the redirect target is Ultra Monsters, where Birdon is already listed. • Gene93k (talk) 11:13, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Ultra Monsters. Aside from a sentence or two of plot summary, the list covers the topic. Notability from the real world is not established. • Gene93k (talk) 12:52, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Does not establish notability through significant coverage of real world context in reliable secondary sources independent of the subject. Jay32183 (talk) 22:56, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• redirect as a plausible search term. Ryan4314 (talk) 05:40, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
