Question: Encyclopedic? --GRider\^talk 23:49, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)

• GRider, please tell me what you think should happen to Milky Bar Kid. It is your responsiblity as nominator to clearly tell your fellow Wikipedians what you think should happen as a result of the nomination. —Markaci 2005-03-14 T 23:53 Z
  • I agree. Hedley 03:48, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, well-known advertising symbol. Kappa 00:02, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep agree with Kappa. Let's remember not to be too US-centric. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 00:05, Mar 15, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Wincoote 01:47, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Famous ad campaigns and slogans should be included. Lee M 01:49, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Merge, I've started an article for Milkybar, and have merged this there. I would like it if someone could add some info on the European dolphin version of the Milkybar kid. I don't think it needs its own article--nixie 02:28, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Merge, and redirect to Milkybar. Concur with Peta. Megan1967 06:23, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Merge as with Nixie. Radiant! 08:35, Mar 15, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete and redirect to Milkybar. ComCat 08:51, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Internationally-recognised brand/campaign. Shouldn't the VfD nominator actually state their reason for listing an article here? --Gene_poole 22:59, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to Milkybar. -- FP 05:58, Mar 18, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, famous enough to deserve a page, and would possibly come under categories that milky bar itself wouldn't come under, such as long-running advertising characters.
• Delete and redirect to Milkybar. Edeans 19:46, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, because the milkybar kid is strong and tough, and only the best is good enough.. Although, funnily enough, the kid in the adverts was always about four foot high and looked like a stereotype wimp. Hedley 03:47, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
