Non-notable fictional character from a video game. Article consists of statistics seemingly copied directly from the manual, which breaks WP:NOT#GUIDE, in-universe character history, which breaks WP:NOT#PLOT, and a trivia section, which is advised against by WP:TRIVIA. Google returns only fansites, game guides, and unrelated hits indicating that it is unlikely secondary sources have devoted significant coverage to this character, which in turn indicates the notability criteria in WP:FICT cannot be met.

• Weak Keep Although I am favour of keeping game characters, these ones, in Saturday Night Slam Masters are the same and they are badly written, and as Doc Fluffy says, seem to be copied verbatim from the manual. If we get rid of this, then all need to go, and maybe the game article itself, as its a similar case. Major re-write. scope_creep 00:19, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

  Comment I'm a little unclear, you acknowledge this article breaks policy, but you !vote "keep" because there are other character articles from the same game? This could be rewritten, but what would you put in it? There are no reliable secondary sources that have covered the subject, so the article will almost certainly be breaking some clause of WP:NOT or WP:N no matter what.
