[edit] Salvatore Leone

Strong Delete Redirect Not notable enough for his own article per both WP:FICT and WP:N. Only person who truly contests this is some anon editor who's argument quite possibly falls into WP:ILIKEIT. ♣ Klptyzm Chat wit' me § Contributions ♣ 02:57, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

    • It's become apparent that I need to add other articles to this list; I hereby nominate the following:
Lance Vance (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)
  • Keep My kneejerk reaction is to call this fancruft, but Grand Theft Auto is more of a legitimate cultural phenomenon than most other games (many of which somehow manage to land uncontested WP articles for all their characters, big and small). Dppowell 03:37, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment - it's hard to come to a conclusion in the absence of any sources. If there are reliable sources regarding this subject then they need to be added to the article before the AFD closes. If the article remains unsourced then delete. Otto4711 05:05, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong Delete - I agree with Klptyzm. Both character's are not notable enough for their own articles and every time someone does try to make this article exist it becomes a mess. Not to mention that they both already have been covered in the "List of characters" for their respective GTA games. .:Alex:. 09:15, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete - Not notable enough to stand alone as an article, and his history is already covered in the lists of GTA III and GTA:LCS pages, respectively. Tarc 13:38, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
  • I've nominated another article; examine it and vote accordingly, please. ♣ Klptyzm Chat wit' me § Contributions ♣ 17:14, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete both characters' notability are insufficient to warrant their own articles. JuJube 18:04, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong redirect both to their respective sections in the "List of [GTA III for Leone / Vice City for Vance] characters" articles. These are both certainly viable search terms, but the lack of independent sources specific to these characters shows, unfortunately, that they don't meet WP standards for standalone articles. (Of course, I hate deleting almost anything GTA, but rules are rules and this isn't an IAR case.) -- Kicking222 19:12, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
  • redirect both keep the material, its well written, but they can be put into sections of lists of GTA characters, as they lack individual notability. Patar knight 21:38, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
