[edit] The Love Ducks

Simply being a facet of Arthur does not confer notability, regardless of the prevalence of this item on the show. The show is notable, every character and plot device is not. Delete or Merge to Arthur (cartoon). -Soltak 19:21, 5 August 2005 (UTC)

• Keep, no reason not to cover. Kappa 19:37, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Aside, perhaps, from the fact that it's a minor plot element of a children's TV show on PBS. -Soltak 19:39, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
    • The only part of that which might be a reason is "minor", however wikipedia is not paper so it has space for minor plot elements too. Kappa 19:48, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
      • In the main article, yes. Love Ducks should either be merged there or removed due to lack of content. -Soltak 19:53, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
• Abstain Although I am not the creator of this article, nor have I edited it, I feel I am too close to the subject matter to vote objectively and therefore recuse myself. I will say, though, that Love Ducks is only central to one Arthur episode (and briefly referenced in a few others). If the vote ends in a merge/redirect decision, I suggest that the target be Teletubbies, of which Love Ducks is an obvious reference/parody. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 20:30, August 5, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete or at best merge with Aurthur. This is a one-time thng,unlike Bionic Bunny which appears in the Arthurverse regularly. ike9898 04:28, August 6, 2005 (UTC)
• Merge to Arthur (cartoon). It is of some interest there but I don't see hope for significant expansion on its own. DoubleBlue (Talk) 18:12, 6 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete it's covered, in a better way, in the Bionic Bunny article. Could be merged there. CanadianCaesar 22:56, 6 August 2005 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect per arguments above. (note that this can't legally be done until the VfD is closed). -- Visviva 14:37, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
