The result was Keep. The general consensus on Wikipedia and within this debate is that lists of characters from notable works, when well written and sourced, can exist as a sub-article of the main article per WP:FICT. The caveat tends to be that the community wants them well written and sourced, otherwsie they shouldn't generally be split out from the parent article. However, as most of the respondents below have indicated, good faith can be extended to see an article improved in line with editing and verifiability policy. This nomination has been closed as keep with no prejudice against a new afd after a reasonable amount of time has been extended for good faith efforts to improve the article. A month has been suggested below, but being contrary I'll suggest 40 days. Hiding T 20:47, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
There has been a long drawn out edit war (one month) between users who believe this article fails WP:FICT/WP:WEIGHT and should thus be redirected to The Fairly OddParents#Characters, while others do not agree. There has been no discussion (and also no improvement) from both sides other than through edit summaries, and attempts to change this were basically ignored from both sides as well.[1] [2] [3]. Note that the article's bluelinks are circular redirects from former character articles that have not been removed yet (I mean the links, the character articles are still redirected). This nomination is procedural, although I believe the article currently looks more like indiscriminate plot information (i.e. every trivial character that ever existed) and fails WP:FICT (I have no idea whether the characters can establish notability as a list.) This is an all-or-nothing-case (i.e. a complete merge doesn't make much sense), and since there is no redirection board, I chose AfD to confirm consensus one way or another. I can/will withdraw if this is not the right forum. – sgeureka t•c 19:35, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
