[edit] Fernando Martinez (disc jockey)
Entirely a work of original research, and I'm not convinced of the subject's notability outside of the game. Marasmusine (talk) 08:18, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
I'm adding the following to this afd, since it seems all the GTA DJs will have similar notability (or lack of it):
- Pepe (disc jockey) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)
- Adam First (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) --BrucePodger (Lets have a beer) 14:13, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- Note: This debate has been added to the list of video game deletions. Marasmusine (talk) 08:18, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete Fails WP:N, lack of sources to prove notability. PeterSymonds | talk 09:41, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

DeleteThe game is notable, the individual characters aren't. Can we get rid of the articles on the other DJs too? --BrucePodger (Lets have a beer) 09:15, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- Note, Adam First has already been changed to a redirect to Grand Theft Auto: Vice City soundtrack. Maurice Chavez has also been made a redirect following its afd, but to List of characters in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. I think we need to find a consistent way to handle these, its currently a mess. Personally I'd now go for redirection to List of characters in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, maybe combined with merging of contents, for consistency with existing the existing afd result. --BrucePodger (Lets have a beer) 14:13, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- Comment Only in-game characters (ie. those listed in the main cast) are included in the "List of characters..." articles; DJs or other radio personalities are covered in the soundtrack articles. Obviously any redirects should reflect this. Where a character appears in more than one game then I think the general rule of thumb—with the GTA taskforce and other regular contributors—is to redirect to either the game in which the character is most prominent or the first game in which the character appeared, whichever is more appropriate. So Adam First is probably fine the way it is and Maurice Chavez should probably also redirect to the Vice City soundtrack; Fernando could redirect to the GTA3 soundtrack article.

- Comment Seems reasonable. --BrucePodger (Lets have a beer) 21:16, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

- Delete original research. Characters are not mentioned in any independent, reliable sources. B.Wind (talk) 04:05, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete - Not notable within the context of the game, let alone outside of it. Its just Maurice Chavez all over again. .:Alex:. 09:22, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
