- Keep Its just like the other hundred or so Marvel Comics Stubs. For a Stub, it is fine. Remember, stubs have different requirements to exist than articles do. Dream Focus 19:51, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- It is not like the hundred or so other Marvel Comic stubs; just now I looked for sources on a few of them, and found them. The Random article button brought me to a topic that has no reliable sources. She has only 41 Google hits, including Wikipedia; Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL. Therefore I nominated the article for deletion.

- Merge or delete I'm making a list of articles to merge together to create a "List of minor Marvel Comics characters" and this pretty much meets the criteria for it. I haven't yet made the article but could either start with this as a nucleous or grab the data once it is deleted. I can't see any hope for major expansion or demonstarting notability but if someone comes along with it we could always look at restartingthis (or splitting it off the list).

- Wouldn't this hypothetical list of all minor Marvel Comics characters be indiscriminate, especially if composed of the characters that had so few sources that somebody nominated them for deletion, rather than some underlying construct of Marvel? Abductive (talk) 21:51, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Such articles are a prefered solution to this problem, e.g. WP:Fiction#List articles says "Elements that are important to understanding a work of fiction, but that lack significant real-world information may .. be dealt with very briefly in the form of a list article of, for instance, minor characters". I don't see any part of the Indiscrminate section that applies to this. I have discussed this with a number of members of the Comics Project and it seems an acceptable way of dealing with things like characters (or fictional objects or groups) that currently don't appear to be able to satisfy notability.

- What I mean is, that would be like a list of all minor characters in all CBS TV shows. Abductive (talk) 22:37, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Not really, as the majority of them share the same fictional universe, it would be simlar to, say, listing the characters in the Law and Order franchise, except they largely break down to their own shows with discrete crossovers whereas there is a lot more crossover in the Marvel Universe. So no, not indiscriminate. (Emperor (talk) 04:14, 25 June 2009 (UTC))[reply]

- Keep, or merge per Emperor. BOZ (talk) 01:08, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- What is the merge target? This character is so obscure that nobody can say where. Abductive (talk) 03:27, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- For now, it could redirect to List of Marvel Comics characters: T. BOZ (talk) 11:38, 26 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
