[edit] Bella Goth

This afd accompanies List of Pre-Made Characters in The Sims and The Langrabb Family as non-notable fancruft; a proper search using Google produces only 941 results. However, this character is considered by the Sims community as a notable topic of interest, therefore I abstain from voting for the time being. ╫ 25 ^ring-a-ding 18:04, 9 October 2005 (UTC) ╫

• Merge with List of Pre-Made Characters in The Sims. Hedley 18:23, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. This is too large to merge. Andrew pmk | Talk 18:58, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. It isn't any less fancruft than an article on a mod in Warcraft or a weapon in Gundam. --Idont Havaname 04:54, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
• Merge per Hedley. If it's too much, to merbe, just be brutal in cutting it down. Saberwyn 05:34, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Bella Goth is a figure with a special history and a special relationship to simfans and game. --Simmemann 07:19, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
• Merge with List of Pre-Made Characters in The Sims. Half of this article is fan speculation or fanon to reconcile two different characters who have the same name (in a series without an actual continuity anyway), and once you cut that away, viola! It fits into the list nicely. - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 15:47, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
• Merge, then Redirect as per Man in Black. Jkelly 01:01, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Relevant page for well known Sim character.Rhetoricalwater 23:40, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Can you demonstrate any notability outside of the Sims community? I've only ever heard of Bella Goth in the context of really hard-core fans of the Sims, which seems to indicate that it's a clear-cut merge case. - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 00:02, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Why cant we simfans have this if WoW fans can have articles on fictional citys and races? --Simmemann 12:33, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
    • Well, when I find those, I'll make sure to merge or AFD those too, as appropriate. - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 21:38, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
      • Easy, check like Ironforge, on the bottom there is even a list of other citys.--Simmemann 18:35, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
• Merge --Optichan 13:42, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
