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.

Nominations

Sailor boy

Unnamed, non-speaking character. With only two minor appearances. Doesn't feel important enough for an article to me. The Solar Dragon 14:23, May 3, 2017 (EDT)

I don't know. In Notability, it is stated that "Unnamed recurring characters should have an article", and as it has two appearances, it is considered a recurring character. In the other hand, it is also stated that "Unnamed, non-speaking characters do not get an article". I'm not sure on this one. / Loco87 ^{(Talk / Contribs)} 07:42, May 15, 2017 (EDT)

The unnamed recurring characters clause is mainly for Bart and Lisa's classmates etc. Those that have many background appearances. The sailor boy to me doesn't fit into that. The Solar Dragon 08:01, May 15, 2017 (EDT)

Crew members on Kent Brockman's list of people who are gay

Honestly, these are an Easter Egg more than anything. The content isn't accurate as a result. Everyone on the list isn't gay. Not in real life. If the crew member has an article with other content on it, it can stay. But the ones who were only mentioned in "Bart's Comet" can go in my opinion. The Solar Dragon 09:24, June 4, 2017 (EDT)

Agree. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 15:10, June 5, 2017 (EDT)

Agreed. Also, any gay references that are solely based on the "Bart's Comet" mention should go as well. (This would be on the crew member articles that don't get deleted.) -- Mythigator (talk) 17:26, June 6, 2017 (EDT)

I feel that it should get a mention, but they shouldn't be counted under LGBT characters. The Solar Dragon 17:50, June 6, 2017 (EDT)

Yup, on further reflection, it IS worth mentioning that they were part of the "comet outing" Easter egg, as long as there is other justification for their having an article, as previously discussed. But they shouldn't go on the LGBT list. -- Mythigator (talk) 18:58, June 6, 2017 (EDT)

I'd also like to throw the people linked on This template into the same category. They should be deleted. The Solar Dragon 16:03, June 7, 2017 (EDT)
