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.

Do we need to list everywhere that sells Simpsons merchandise.... -- cjc 07:56, 16 May 2012 (EDT)

I think it was created to mention this.--Cook879 08:19, 16 May 2012 (EDT)

Bourbon, Mayo, Ketchup, Mustard, Milk, Gin, Scotch, Peanut Butter, Vodka, Old Whisky, Soy Sauce, Lunch Meat

Again, all these articles are incredibly generic and I think we should really only be making pages for brands of food/drink not types. Unless the food in question is important to the show or stands out for whatever reason. I may be missing some. --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 09:52, 22 May 2012 (EDT)

Agreed to all of these. Solar Dragon ^{(Talk • Contribs.)} 10:08, 22 May 2012 (EDT)

I think we should keep Bourbon, but the rest delete. | | Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 10:29, 22 May 2012 (EDT)

But I really really wanted to know all the appearances of Ketchup! Why do these exist in the first place?? -- cjc 10:47, 22 May 2012 (EDT)

Sure. Maybe we can merge them possibly. But yes to delete. WebkinzMania 14:47, 22 May 2012 (EDT)

Money down the drain. Why delete them? They are Simpson universe products. --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 05:23, 23 May 2012 (EDT)

They're every universe products. They just aren't notable (special) enough. It'd be like making a page for tomato, or potato, etc. If they were a specific brand, then I'd say keep them, but they're not. --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 09:31, 23 May 2012 (EDT)

If we are to have a page on something just because it exists in the Simpsons universe, then the Notability guidelines wouldn't need to be anything more than just "Been on the Simpsons". -- cjc 10:13, 23 May 2012 (EDT)

If we keep these pages, there's nothing to stop people making pages for chairs, bottles, fridges etc. They should be deleted. The Solar Dragon ^{(Talk - Contribs.)} 10:23, 23 May 2012 (EDT)

Pages for each individual chair (Simpsons kitchen chair 1?) or just the concept of chairs? Because, I think people would really be interested to know that the Simpsons have chairs. Just like they are interested in milk and lunch meat. -- cjc 13:02, 23 May 2012 (EDT)

I just think we should keep Bourbon. The rest are just useless. Also, cjc, I agree to your suggestion to create chair articles. They would be really detailed and have loads of images! | | Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 13:21, 23 May 2012 (EDT)

Why Bourbon? It's just like all these other articles: completely unremarkable and generic. (I just noticed that Solar was the one who made that article. :P) --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 18:07, 23 May 2012 (EDT)

<outdent>From the page: Bourbon is a real brand of whiskey. -- cjc 09:22, 24 May 2012 (EDT)

Also from the page, and from wikipedia: Bourbon is a type of whiskey. --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 09:30, 24 May 2012 (EDT)

Spray Paint

I think its obvious why. -- cjc 16:42, 27 May 2012 (EDT)

Agree. Solar Dragon ^{(Talk • Contribs.)} 16:43, 27 May 2012 (EDT)

Agree. --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 18:37, 27 May 2012 (EDT)

Agreed. WebkinzMania 21:29, 27 May 2012 (EDT)

--Cook879 16:28, 28 May 2012 (EDT)

Pickles

Per the above food. WebkinzMania 15:11, 28 May 2012 (EDT)

--Cook879 16:28, 28 May 2012 (EDT)

Delete --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 18:50, 28 May 2012 (EDT)

Grilled cheese sandwich and Grilled Cheese

Can I make an article on toast? -- cjc 16:24, 28 May 2012 (EDT)

The second's a location, so notability should cover that.--Cook879 16:28, 28 May 2012 (EDT)

Delete the first one. Also possbily the owner? Since he's unnamed and doesn't speak. --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 18:51, 28 May 2012 (EDT)

Oh, I didn't realise the second one was a location, as it was on the food template, so just ignore that. -- cjc 07:44, 29 May 2012 (EDT)

Russian general's baker

This unnamed, non-speaking character is not notable. --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 23:23, 30 May 2012 (EDT)

Gus (Homerazzi)

Whatever the notability policy says, this is just too minor. He was mentioned once and didn't really have any relevance. Nothing was said about him, just that he think that 5 fires are started by birthday candles. | | Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 11:44, 5 June 2012 (EDT)

Keep, like the policy, every mentioned characters that has name should have an article. /AleWi 16:24, 5 June 2012 (EDT)

But it's not like the fireman said, "Gus is a great firefighter! He's put out 20 fires in the last 5 days!" | | Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 16:25, 5 June 2012 (EDT)
