[edit] Ruth Pearce

Ruth Pearce (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Article about a minor soap opera character who appeared for the first time on the show at April 18, 2008 and article created at April 19, 2008. Contains no real world information. Fails notability per WP:SOAPS and WP:FICTION. Prod was reverted with no exhalation and without establishing notability or adding any real world information.

• Delete Non-Notable per WP:SOAPS and WP:FICTION.--RyRy5 (talk ♠ wikify) 20:29, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete as not passing notability guidelines mentioned by nom. Can't see any significant real-world coverage, nor do I expect there to be any.--BelovedFreak 21:28, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

• Keep, the {{prod}} was probably removed because the nominator has been nominating scores of fictional character articles for "Fails notability per WP:FICTION", but WP:FICTION is just a proposal, it's not even a guideline. And SOAPS is a WikiProject guideline and does not apply to non-members of that WikiPro9ject. The text "portrayed by actress Selina Chilton" actually *is* real world information. And I believe it's spelled "explanation", not "exhalation". --Pixelface (talk) 15:30, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Please don't try to guess why some people are reverting edits without edit summaries. In fact, I could just revert the edit because the rules for declining a prod say clearly that we need a summary. The information you are mentioning in the article can already be found in other related articles. I think we need a more general discussion. A soap opera is something more than a collection of its characters and its episodes. That a soap is notable it doesn't mean that every of its character it's as well. -- Magioladitis (talk) 15:20, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
