These articles are pretty pointless. None of these characters ever speak a word and they're only even in a single panel. And Kent's stock broker is only ever mentioned. --[[User:Nick97|'''<font color=darkorange>Nick97</font>''']] <sup>([[User talk:Nick97|<font color=peach>'''talk'''</font>]] ~ [[Special:Contributions/Nick97|<font color=turquoise>'''contribs'''</font>]])</sup>  13:30, 27 January 2012 (EST)

::Since they don't speak a word, and are unnamed, they go against [[Wikisimpsons:Notability|our notability policy]]. This states something along the lines of unnamed characters who play a large role and named characters get pages. These articles don't meet that criteria. Brockman's stock broker meets the criteria even less as he wasn't named and was only mentioned. ☆<span style="font-family:Algerian">[[User:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:green">The</span>]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:red">Solar</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|<span style="color:blue">Dragon</span>]]</span>☆ 05:03, 28 January 2012 (EST)

Pages for deletion (PfD) is where editors discuss whether a page should be deleted. Articles listed are normally discussed for at least five days after which the deletion process proceeds based on community consensus. Then the page may be kept, merged or redirected, moved to another title or deleted.

This is easily too minor for an article here and I don't think it should have one. The Solar Dragon (Talk - Contribs.) 04:29, 28 January 2012 (EST)

We should add this to a list of birthday cards page, which we currently do not have, so I think it should stay for now. Randomno 06:10, 28 January 2012 (EST)
We don't need the actual page for a list of birthday cards. A gallery would be best I think. The Solar Dragon 06:13, 28 January 2012 (EST)
A list of many birthday cards. We can create a page called "List of birthday cards" with sections of each, with an image and description. A gallery limits information and card names. Randomno 06:29, 28 January 2012 (EST)
I think some sort of list would be ok. You could stick other types of cards on it, and maybe even other stationary (If you could find any). --Nick97 (talk ~ contribs) 13:00, 28 January 2012 (EST)
We had agreed that a list be made here, and to not move the article over (Frederick wasn't there though).--Cook879 15:16, 28 January 2012 (EST)

Springfield Nuclear Power Plant employee (Simpson and Delilah)

Lack of notability. Said one line. Wasn't seen clearly. The Solar Dragon 06:48, 28 January 2012 (EST)

(This is my response to both the employees) Sounds like they only say a few words each, so yeah I'd say delete. --Nick97 (talk ~ contribs) 13:00, 28 January 2012 (EST)
I disagree, it should get a better image. FatHomerTalk 14:48, 28 January 2012 (EST)
Disagree - We have named characters who do as little or less then this.--Cook879 15:16, 28 January 2012 (EST)
The difference is, this character is unnamed. Bring this up on the talk page of Wikisimpsons:Notability. Solar Dragon (Talk Contribs.) 15:30, 28 January 2012 (EST)
You changed recently the article without question us, before you changed it was all speaking characters notability. /AleWi 15:36, 28 January 2012 (EST)
Keep /AleWi 06:45, 29 January 2012 (EST)

Springfield Nuclear Power Plant employee (Life on the Fast Lane)

Lack of notability, said one line. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 06:49, 28 January 2012 (EST)

I disagree, it should get a better image. FatHomerTalk 14:48, 28 January 2012 (EST)
Disagree - We have named characters who do as little or less then this.--Cook879 15:16, 28 January 2012 (EST)

Johnny Tightlips' mother

Only mentioned once, goes against policy, I think. Just like Kent Brockman's stock broker page. | SimpsonsFR.pngSimpsonsFA.pngSimpsonsFN.pngSimpsonsFD.pngSimpsonsFO.pngSimpsonsFM.pngSimpsonsFN.pngSimpsonsFO.png | Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 03:09, 1 February 2012 (EST)

The notability policy also states that recurring characters family members can get articles if mentioned. However, it doesn't seem to have any information about her other than the fact she is his mother so delete. SolarDragonName.png (Talk - Contribs.) 08:25, 1 February 2012 (EST)
Concur. -- Mythigator 09:10, 9 February 2012 (EST)

Little Monty

Does this one dog really need it's own article, especially when none of the other puppies have their own? Seems like it should just be a redirect or they should all have pages. --Nick97 (talk ~ contribs) 18:18, 6 February 2012 (EST)

Disagree. Little Monty is distinct from the other puppies, the same way that Surly Duff is distinct from the other Duffs. There's enough information specifically about Surly and about Little Monty to warrant them having their own articles, even though there's not enough to make individual articles about the other members of the groups they belong to. -- Mythigator 09:08, 9 February 2012 (EST)

Rudy Giuliani

He actually didn't guest star on The Simpsons, so I don't think it needs an article. --Fred (Talk) 03:32, 9 February 2012 (EST)

Disagree. He did appear when the episode ran in syndication. The guest star and character articles should both stay, but one or the other should have a BtL note about the circumstances of Giulani's not appearing in the episode's first run. -- Mythigator 09:05, 9 February 2012 (EST)
