[edit] Miggs (character)

I do not think this admittedly "very minor" character from The Silence of the Lambs is sufficiently notable to have his own article, which would require "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". PROD removed by author, saying "this article is necessary for people researching characters and storylines from the American crime fiction genre". A previous article on the same character was deleted at AfD here. JohnCD (talk) 12:01, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

• Keep/merge The character gets lots of mentions and so the article should be retained as a redirect at least. Colonel Warden (talk) 12:37, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

• Redirect to The Silence of the Lambs as per Colonel Warden. Too minor for its own page but not too trivial for a mention. Littleteddy (roar!) 12:43, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
• Delete, pretty much everything in this article is already in the The Silence of the Lambs (novel) article and no articles link to this one. --Pixelface (talk) 16:08, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
• Redirect As Pixelface says, it's already in the The Silence of the Lambs. Wipe it away and redirect it to there. --Pmedema (talk) 16:17, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
• Keep/Merge per the Colonel. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) 23:46, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

• I added five quick refs. You could probably find 10 more if you want. Not sure why so many reliable sources exist for him, but they do. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) 01:42, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

• If there's any content worth keeping, merge. -- Ned Scott 09:05, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
• Merge to List of minor characters in the Hannibal series, I don't think this even requires an AfD, pretty uncontroversial redirect if you ask me. The Dominator (talk) 15:11, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
• Merge per Dominator. Hobit (talk) 01:32, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
