Merge clearly not independently notable, merge to List_of_Transformers:_Cybertron_characters. Black Kite (t) (c) 20:07, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Google news shows one result, detailed coverage of her. [1] Character had a speaking role in a notable animated series. Article is filled with information, most/all of which would be lost if '"merged". Dream Focus 22:52, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge - no evidence of significant coverage in multiple reliable independent sources, as is mandatory per WP:GNG. A short summary in the list will be fine. Claritas § 13:44, 30 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Note: The article under discussion here has been flagged for {{rescue}} by the Article Rescue Squadron, with no explanation as to why this article should be rescued and how that could happen (per ARS instructions). SnottyWong ^confer 17:08, 30 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to List of Transformers: Cybertron characters. Not notable enough for its own article. SnottyWong ^confer 17:08, 30 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to the character lists, else delete. One of the reasons we even have character lists in the first place is so we don't end up with tons of hopeless articles like this. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 18:12, 30 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or merge, I'm not fussed, but this article should not exist. J Milburn (talk) 13:33, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Centralize discussion and merge and redirect as accordingly decided by Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Transformers centralized discussion. There are so many articles, surely some of them can be lumped. —CodeHydro 13:41, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or merge - fails WP:GNG, but I have no problems with verifiable information in the article being placed somewhere else. Claritas § 15:44, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This is just more trasnformers fluff.Slatersteven (talk) 20:06, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect to List of Transformers: Cybertron characters pursuant to the guidelines for elements within a notable fictional work listed at Wikipedia:Notability (fiction). This is a recurring character. No need to destroy the article or its history as the character may become more significant with future Transformer projects.

Merge for the sake of building a consensus. Shooterwalker (talk) 21:26, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Its been shown time and time again the so called "sources" on this and many other Transformers articles are unreliable :See "Reliable sources for Transformers" Dwanyewest (talk) 01:46, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
