[edit] Gabrielle Delacour

more Potter cruft. Again, this character only appears briefly in the series and has no major role in the plot. The article falls far short of demonstrating the character's notability (that's met by being the subject of multiple, non-trivial coverage in the real world, in case anyone's forgotten).

  • Comment I think the merger is quite reasonable, but the argument given for initiating this debate is suspect. The issue is whether Harry Potter is noteable and whether a particular character ought to be explained, not whether that character is noteable in isolation. It would be possible to put every character into one huge, long, unreadable article, but that would just be plain silly. The best reason I see for this article to remain is one of organisation, that having an article (however small) makes it easier for that character to be looked up by anyone interested, or to be linked where relevant, or to be cataloged. Perhaps not entirely relevant here, but I see an argument to merge Fleur Delacour with Bill Weasley, as a couple. Gabriel might then sit slightly uneasily in their company.

    • The problem of looking someone up and finding their article is solved by redirecting to a specific section; ex, #REDIRECT [[Minor Harry Potter characters#Gabrielle Delacour]]. —Disavian (talk/contribs) 20:24, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy close I think there is enough of a consensus to merge this to minor HP characters. I have executed it. Ohconfucius 03:44, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
