No independent sources, no out-of-universe notability. Does not meet WP:GNG. Crusio (talk) 14:01, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Other than a major character, there are sources. Fractyl (talk) 16:46, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Let this page stay. He's a main character of Digimon Xros Wars. Rtkat3 (talk) 5:36, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

Comment Being a major character in a series does not mean that an independent article is warranted. None of the sources are independent reliable sources either. As it stands, the article is just an OR plot summary. --Crusio (talk) 16:08, 13 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to List of Digimon Xros Wars characters for lack of coverage by reliable third-party sources. —Farix (t | c) 01:25, 6 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or redirect to List of Digimon Xros Wars characters: The fictional character does not meet the general notability guideline and it is a plot-only description of a fictional work. As the character is already covered in List of Digimon Xros Wars characters and, given its notoriety in the plot and a simple article title, it is a plausible search term, so a redirect is an acceptable alternative to deletion.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Redirect per Jfgslo above. Sergeant Cribb (talk) 19:11, 13 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to List of Digimon Xros Wars characters likely search term for the characters, the history will also be kept for any merge attempts. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 19:16, 13 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
