The result was delete. -- Cirt (talk) 02:15, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - It's a good article that combines two minor characters with the same name. Mathewignash (talk) 12:08, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - these are two obscure characters. Likely not meeting the requirements. If anybody really needs information on the subject(s), they can look it up on TFWiki which has pretty well-written articles. NotARealWord (talk) 13:31, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Likely not? You mean that you haven't actually checked? You're supposed to check. Otherwise your opinion doesn't carry very much weight, because it isn't founded in proper research. Go and look for sources documenting this subject to see whether they exist, and report what you do and don't find. Uncle G (talk) 16:18, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Google search for "transformers +scattor" does not yield proper results to establish notability, from what I checked. NotARealWord (talk) 16:35, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Exactly they are minor characters. there is no reason for this page. There are google search hits, but not for this character..Slatersteven (talk) 14:50, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. No real sources cited, no evidence of real world notability. J Milburn (talk) 19:08, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Google new's first result is about the character, giving a decent review of him. [1] Other places that talk about the characters/toys will give coverage as well, as will toy guides and handbooks. Plus he was a character in two different animated series, and various comic books.

Er, that's a user-generated review of a toy. Where is the coverage of the character? Black Kite (t)(c) 13:57, 30 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, no evidence of real-world notability. Black Kite (t)(c) 13:57, 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). SnottyWongconfess 17:00, 30 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per obvious lack of notability. SnottyWongconfess 17:00, 30 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as above. Clearly not notable. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 19:25, 30 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect to Transformers: Universe 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. Inniverse (talk) 14:24, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - No way. Scattor are minor characters from Transformers: Armada and Energon. Not really relevant to Transformers: Universe. A deletion will suffice. NotARealWord (talk) 17:57, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge or keep The actual choice is between merge and keep--deletion should not have been suggested; I think it's borderline for a separate article. DGG ( talk ) 02:55, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Would such minor characters even deserve a redirect? NotARealWord (talk) 07:58, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete due to a lack of third-party sources to WP:verify notability of this topic. Shooterwalker (talk) 21:59, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
