[edit] Didi Hill

• Merge and redirect: It is necessary to merge and redirect. As a final note: Do not revert my previous comments please. Didi is a very minor character, one small paragraph isn't quite necessary to have a full page for that. (nomination by 68.47.26.123)

• Keep: there's no reason not to have an article on Didi Hill, not when we have articles on every other main character on the show. The reason that I keep deleting the last sentence of the paragraph is that it is nothing but a rumor. Wikipedia is not an appropriate place for rumors. If you insist on inserting that sentence, then you must cite a valid source, not just "my brother worked at FOX".

Honestly, this is not the way to resolve content disputes on Wikipedia. If you feel strongly that your rumor should be in the article, then take it up on the article's Talk page. Abusing the AfD system this way does nothing to further your cause.

For reference, here is the disputed sentence:

It was rumored around the studio that Didi was once a prostitute.

• Wiki articles are editable and removing fringe rumours is perfectly fine. It's not denial of information, it's denial of baseless accusations. I could spread rumours about, say Britney Spears, but that wouldn't mean it needs to be included in her Wikipedia entry. - Mgm|^(talk) 11:04, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
• When I said baseless accusations I was referring to the recently deleted sentence: "It is rumored that she was prostitute." Such rumours have no place in Wikipedia. Denying them is perfectly fine. - Mgm|^(talk) 07:04, 18 September 2005 (UTC)

• Merge and redirect to Cotton Hill. I don't watch the show, but my impression is that this is a very minor character. Is there any possiblity of this small paragraph being expanded into a proper article-length page? Func( t, c, @, ) 17:11, 18 September 2005 (UTC)

• Merge and redirect per Func. Paul August ☎ 15:29, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
