[edit] 555 95472

555 95472 (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Overly detailed and unsourced fancruft on a character who only made a few apperances now and then in Peanuts. Nothing in this article is sourced, and there is a lot of original research ("parents could be 1 and 2" for instance). Only source is another wiki and another WP article.

Here are a few other Peanuts characters who don't seem to be notable enough for their own pages:

Eudora (Peanuts) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Miss Othmar (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

José Peterson (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Poochie (Peanuts) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Roy (Peanuts) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Joe Shlabotnik (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Thibault (Peanuts) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

I love Peanuts, but none of these characters seem to be notable enough -- except maybe for Miss Othmar and Joe Shlabotnik, they don't even deserve to be merged.

• Delete all, been reading Peanuts all my life, and the only one of those I even recognize is Miss Othmar. All fail WP:FICT. Collectonian (talk) 19:30, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

• I remember 555, José Peterson, Roy, and Thibault (and of course Shlabotnik, who I just added), for what it's worht. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 19:32, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

• Merge into a new Minor Peanuts characters articles. Ample precedent for doing this - every fictional series you could think of has a 'minor characters' article. None of these characters warrant their own article, but it would be a mistake to remove them completely from Wikipedia. faithless (^speak) 19:40, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

• Comment I have created List of minor Peanuts characters. It's a poor start, but a start just the same. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 21:26, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

• Merge to List of minor Peanuts characters per the growing consensus that lists are the best way to handle breaking out fictional elements that do not pass WP:FICT on their own. —Quasirandom (talk) 00:25, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
• Merge - a good idea by Faithless, and good work by TPH. well done  : ) Doc Tropics 07:51, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
• Merge into a (new) Peanuts characters page. Yes, not notable enough for separate pages, but potentially notable as a group. – sgeureka ^t•c 08:46, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
• Merge- the only character I recognize off the bat is 555; and until I found his article, I only thought of him as some random kid in the Charlie Brown Christmas special. WAVY 10 Fan (talk) 14:06, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
