[edit] Luca Brasi

Luca Brasi (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

The character receives all of two scenes in the film and is only slightly expanded upon in the novel. Not grounds for an entire article to be devoted to him. The Filmaker 16:19, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

  • This AfD Should Sleep With The Fishes. Oh, come now. If we can have articles on every model of battlesuit that had so much as ten seconds screentime on Mobile Suit Gundam, we can have an article on a character provoking one of the most famous lines in cinematic history, one that's entered the public vocabulary. (This is a Keep, by the bye.) RGTraynor 19:03, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment- I don't think we should have articles on every Gundam battlesuit. Reyk YO! 19:39, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
    • As stated below, the only significant contribution from the character is the quote. Which can be discussed in The Godfather article. How is your reasoning a suitable excuse for keeping the article? "Oh, we've already got the same problem in other areas. Let's not bother to try to improve Wikipedia at all..." The Filmaker 20:02, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep- Luca Brasi is an important character in an important work. Reyk YO! 19:39, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
    • How exactly is he important? He gets put on a job, and then gets killed. The only significant contribution he gives is to the "sleeping with the fishes" quote. The Filmaker 19:58, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep/Merge/Redirect I think there's enough on this page to warrant a seperate article. It's not like anybody is arguing for the information to be outright removed. It is short, but since there is no "minor characters in the Godfather series" article, it can't be merged. Yet. At the least, since people might look up Luca Brasi, a redirect to somewhere is probably necessary. Mister.Manticore 20:44, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
    • Quite. I get that Filmaker disagrees, but there are only so many variations on "I don't think he's important!" a single AfD warrants. RGTraynor 20:47, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep per RGTraynor. --Xiahou 02:17, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Put a fish in it, wrap it in newspaper and delete it: Not enough information for an encyclopedic article without including vast amounts of trivia, it could easily and painlessly be merged, and the information is already covered in adiquate detail in the main articleWintermut3 03:21, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment. Best AfD discussion ever. --Hemlock Martinis 04:54, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep or combine all minor characters. I enjoyed reading it, and the other character synopses. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 05:39, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
  • I would certainly support a Merge & Redirect were there a "Minor characters in The Godfather" article. RGTraynor 15:05, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Despite his brief role, he is a somewhat iconic character of the Godfather series. Danny Lilithborne 05:54, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
