[edit] Robert Goren

This was marked for speedy deletion as "nonsense/vanity". However, it wasn't patent nonsense, just unwikified and written in fractured English. So I'm moving it here. This is the main protagonist in Law_&_Order:_Criminal_Intent, just as John Hoynes is a secondary character in The West Wing. (A line from the discotheque scene in THHGTTG springs to mind — which probably has an article in Wikipedia, too.) Uncle G 02:16, 2005 Jan 22 (UTC)

Delete. Completely unreadable as it currently stands. Someone else can write a proper article on the character later. 23skidoo 18:44, 22 Jan 2005 (UTC)

• Name of a fictitious NYPD detective, main character of a notable, popular TV show. Some good info, but this article doesn't fit the format we have for such things. Delete. If someone who is good with TV articles cleans this up before the 5 days are gone, I will change my vote. Fire Star 19:27, 22 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Change my vote to keep. Article cleaned up nicely. Fire Star 05:20, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC)

• Keep and list for Cleanup. RickK 23:48, Jan 22, 2005 (UTC)
• Weak Delete, borderline notable. Perhaps it could be merged with L&O:CI, but as it stands it needs a major rewrite if kept. Megan1967 01:30, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. I have cleaned up this article adding information about the character and D'Onofrio's performance in the role. Capitalistroadster 04:51, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. This was, in my opinion, originally a nonsense article (random 2-3 words comments regarding the character). However, it is now a completely different article that should be kept. TigerShark 11:27, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC)
• Keep main character on one of the most popular TV series. That passes any reasonable inclusion criteria by a wide margin. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 13:22, Jan 24, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Samaritan 18:53, 24 Jan 2005 (UTC)
• Keep better than many Wikipedia articles... Totally notable. Smoddy | ειπετε 19:17, 27 Jan 2005 (UTC)
