Lacks notability and no sources. TBrandley (talk) 07:01, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2012 February 25. Snotbot  t • c »  07:16, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Lack of sources isn't an issue for AfD, but notability could be. Anyway, I don't see the purpose in having a list of minor My Name Is Earl characters when we don't even have a list of the major ones, not even as a redirect. Not taking an official stance just yet, though. Chris the Paleontologist (talk • contribs) 16:11, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The other characters could have articles created for them at any time. -- 92.4.57.32 (talk) 18:40, 27 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep: Per editorial discretion, I'd rather have this than separate articles, or pollution of the main show article.--Milowent • ^hasspoken 20:50, 27 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - Based on Milowent's argument and past outcomes, I would prefer to keep this in one place. Sourcing from other articles should be easy, although since I hate the show, someone else should do that job. Bearian (talk) 22:18, 27 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep or rename and expand: Despite my previous comment, I think deletion is out of the question. The important question is whether the character articles should be split into major and minor lists, or whether there should be one list of My Name Is Earl characters. If the latter is determined by community consensus, then this page could be moved to List of My Name Is Earl characters, and major characters could be added as well. This setup might need to be reworked, but I don't think deletion is required. Chris the Paleontologist (talk • contribs) 00:36, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
