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)

Rava Khatan

Mentioned only character who, as far as I can see, isn't a real person. Too minor an article and against notability policy. The Solar Dragon 18:02, May 3, 2017 (EDT)

Agree. Not notable. / Loco87 (Talk / Contribs) 07:42, May 15, 2017 (EDT)

Gradiva

Published a Portuguese version of some books... Okay. Why do we need this article? The Solar Dragon 06:36, May 15, 2017 (EDT)

Agree. Delete. / Loco87 (Talk / Contribs) 07:42, May 15, 2017 (EDT)

Tony Plow

Not an actual character. A name Homer made up, referencing an actor. The Solar Dragon 08:12, May 15, 2017 (EDT)

Seems not notable to me. Delete. / Loco87 (Talk / Contribs) 08:22, May 15, 2017 (EDT)
