[edit] Sky Haussman

Article on Sky Haussman, a fictional character in the Revelation Space series, is nominated for deletion because individual characters are not encyclopedic topics by themselves unless they're major enough according to WP:FICT, which this is not really. There is already an entry for Characters_in_Revelation_Space, and I have already moved this material to the listing that was already there for this character, at Characters_in_Revelation_Space#Schuyler_.22Sky.22_Haussman_.2F_.22H.22. Even if it were argued that this character were of enough encyclopedic interest under WP:FICT for his own page, there are several much more notable characters in the Revelation Space series than this one, and they are all happily on the omnibus Characters_in_Revelation_Space page; those more major characters would all have to be convincingly shown to be major enough for their own pages before this character. For example, while this character is a major character in one of the 'RS' novels and has a cameo in a second one, the character Nevil Clavain is a major character of two of the 'RS' novels and the central character of two of the 'RS' short stories - if any 'RS' character were to get his own article, it would be him. - Reaverdrop (talk/nl/w:s) 04:33, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

• Delete This individual character article isn't notable enough for the FICT rules, or major enough. Delete. - Denny 05:53, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
• Merge You've moved the material? Then merger is the option here, not deletion. Make it a redirect and be done with it. Mister.Manticore 06:58, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Ah, my mistake. Since it was actually a merger, already effected, I edited the original page to a redirect. No content has been deleted. - Reaverdrop (talk/nl/w:s) 07:31, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
• Redirect (as-is) to help people find the content. John Vandenberg 14:48, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
