This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion of the article below. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record.
The result of the debate was merge and redirect to Miscellaneous minor characters in Star Wars.

I count two deletes, a transwiki, three merges, a merge or keep, and two keeps. There is no consensus for deletion, but a clear majority agrees that this should not remain in its own article. —Korath (Talk) 01:39, Mar 27, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Commander Bly

With 50 unique google hits, is this a case of scifi-cruft, or is this a legitimately encyclopedic topic worthy of note on Wikipedia? --GRider\talk 23:53, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)

  • Another one? Merge or keep. Sigh. Kappa 00:02, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, Lucascruft. Wyss 00:07, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete, nn fancruft. ComCat 02:04, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge with Minor characters in Star Wars. -- Riffsyphon1024 02:36, Mar 9, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, but with reservations. Article needs cleanup and expansion. Megan1967 03:24, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • weak Keep We should certainly wait to see his part in Episode III. They're making action figures out of the guy, so he's probably of enough note. -LtNOWIS 01:51, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
    • Agreed, if he makes an appearance in Ep. III, then there is no doubt he is noteworthy. -- Riffsyphon1024 02:47, Mar 10, 2005 (UTC)

This article has been Transwikied to Wikicities:c:StarWars:Commander Bly. If he is a notable character in Episode III, he may be able to return to Wikipedia. -- Riffsyphon1024 22:56, Mar 13, 2005 (UTC)

  • Merge into and then redirect to Miscellaneous minor characters in Star Wars, can be expanded if his story is created in more depth in upcoming movies or comics/books &c. -- Lochaber 16:38, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)
    • I think it's worth note at this point that I'm not that keen on the phrase "transwiki" being applied to moving stuff outside of Wikimedia projects... do you mean deleted out of Wikipedia? -- Lochaber 16:45, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)
      • Technically no matter what happens here, it's still copied to the SWW. But lets wait for this to end to see what we'll do here. -- Riffsyphon1024 07:28, Mar 25, 2005 (UTC)
