- Keep - Notable character article that just needs work. At the rate these deletionists are nominating articles, how can they expect work to be done on them! Keep and start nominating them at a sane pace. Mathewignash (talk) 21:07, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- If you believe it's notable, provide some evidence. If you want to work on the article later, it can be restored to your userspace. J Milburn (talk) 21:43, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Non-notable fan sources, failure of WP:GNG. Tarc (talk) 17:48, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge into a G1 character article. This character appears in the Japanese continuation of the G1 series. —Farix (t | c) 00:27, 10 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- When dealing with non-notable character articles, it is always preferable to look for a list or to create one to merge the article into, or merge/redirect them to the main article instead of outright deletion and is in keeping with the WP:PRESERVE policy. Only in cases where the character is completely incidental should it be deleted. —Farix (t | c) 18:16, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep or Merge to a character list. BOZ (talk) 04:22, 10 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep why? Or merge to which character list? J Milburn (talk) 23:16, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Notability - I just added a non-primary book source. Mathewignash (talk) 12:51, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - Seems that book is a guide on toys. Unless there was like an entire chapter about Skullgrin as a character, then it doesn't establish notability. NotARealWord (talk) 19:36, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
