Unsourced article about minor character in 2 episodes of the series Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Already adequately discussed in Sunnydale High School students. Could be adequately covered by mention in Minor characters of Buffy the Vampire Slayer . Fails WP:N. Per WP:FICT: "Minor characters and minor treatments of such matters as places and concepts in a work of fiction are merged with short descriptions into a "List of characters."

• Delete; What They Said. Jesse has some claim to honorary "major character" status in that Whedon intended to put Eric Balfour's name in the opening titles of the first episode, to show that major characters are not exempt from risk of death (but an extra set of titles would have cost too much). But the fact remains that he is never(?) mentioned after the opening two-parter. —Tamfang 21:09, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep; we have articles for characters with smaller roles in other projects.--Gonzalo84 02:47, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment Sounds like WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS and is not a valid argument for keeping it. Should we have an article for every minor character in 20 years and 635 episodes of Gunsmoke? Presently there are not even articles for the main characters other than the Marshall. Notability is permanent. What should be the standard? Edison 04:04, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect boldly redirected to Sunnydale High School students#Jesse_McNally. There's usually a page for minor characters, and that's where this belongs. Ohconfucius 08:27, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
