Discussion[edit]
- I believe we should have them. They are like "name seen" characters. Why are we have this discussion. Every thing to do with The Simpsons. --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 06:59, 13 November 2012 (EST)
- Support removal - may be a few exceptions, but nothing not handled by some UCS. -- cjc 16:31, 18 November 2012 (EST)
- Remove. See my blog post for reasons why I support. Solar Dragon (Talk • Contribs.) 17:40, 18 November 2012 (EST)
- Remove, in accordance with the same standards that Solar is putting forth regarding articles for characters who are only mentioned. By that standard, the Terror Lake article would be a keeper, but the articles for Cape Fear, Screamville and New Horrorfield would be deleted and the information presently on them would be consolidated onto the References tab for the episode ("Cape Feare") in which they're mentioned. -- Mythigator 01:19, 26 November 2012 (EST)
