The result was redirect. Given that there are no cited sources on the page for the content in question, I'm going with a hard redirect (delete, then redirect) over a soft redirect to List of The Venture Bros. characters. — Scientizzle 20:17, 5 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I doubt that the character would meet the notability, this article does not have a real world coverage and citations. JJ98 (Talk) 10:16, 20 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak Keep The character is important to the show. The show has been deemed notable. Unless wikipedia has a policy of deleting EVERY minor character. As a random example, what about http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dreamslayer ? I agree that the article is poorly done, but could benefit from being edited.

• Redirect to List of The Venture Bros. characters. WP:NOT#PLOT violation in WP:IN-UNIVERSE style, unsourced, no established WP:NOTABILITY. Nothing obvious to merge, but it's a main character, so there should at least be a redirect. – sgeureka ^t•c 07:42, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge or Redirect to List of The Venture Bros. characters. The article in its current state is a major WP:PLOT fail, consisting of 99.9% plot summary (disguised as "Personality and relationships", "History and activities on the show", etc.). There's no indication that significant third-party source coverage exists from which the article could be improved. It's just plot rehash. --IllaZilla (talk) 18:08, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete or bare redirect to List of The Venture Bros. characters. Unsourced (therefore no verifiable material to merge) and lacking any indication that substantive, reliable third-party sourcing will become available. Hrafn^Talk_Stalk^(P) 05:17, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
