Master Control Program (Tron)

Short article consisting primarily of in-universe information and trivia. While this is a primary character in the movie, the character has little to no demonstrated real-world notability and is already summarized at an appropriate level in the main Tron article. — KieferSkunk (talk) — 22:07, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Considering the article's list of other media where the MCP is spoofed or referenced, I find the claims of non-notability and in-universe-onlyness to be dubious. Keep. Bryan Derksen (talk) 22:22, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, but if you go and take a look at the edit history for Tron (film) and see how two entire sections of trivia were removed, and those were mostly about pop-culture references and spoofs, I think that the pop-culture references in the MCP's article will likely suffer the same fate when given the same scrutiny. — KieferSkunk (talk) — 22:31, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with tron (film) and redirect. Unreferenced and no evidence of true independent notability. Minor use in film-associated game doesn't seem to me to be sufficient.- (User) WolfKeeper (Talk) 22:58, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per lack of significant coverage, meaning "that sources address the subject directly in detail" (emphasis mine). Any useful information should be imparted on the parent article, Tron (film). —Erik (talk • contrib) - 23:24, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. If keepers want the information, they are welcome to source the info, prove notability, and add it to the Tron article. Michael Q. Schmidt (talk) 03:47, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Reasonable topic for spinout article per WP:FICT and WAF. Hobit (talk) 18:55, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also: [1] would indicate notability. 100 books that use this phrase (apparently in the context of Tron) isn't bad. And 64 news articles with the same search? [2] I suspect there are some RS in there. Hobit (talk) 18:58, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
