*'''Keep''' Reasonable topic for spinout article per [[WP:FICT]] and WAF. [[User:Hobit|Hobit]] ([[User talk:Hobit|talk]]) 18:55, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

:*Also: [http://books.google.com/books?um=1&q=%22Master+Control+Program%22+tron&btnG=Search+Books] would indicate notability. 100 books that use this phrase (apparently in the context of Tron) isn't bad. And 64 news articles with the same search? [http://news.google.com/archivesearch?um=1&tab=pn&q=%22Master+Control+Program%22+tron&ie=UTF-8] I suspect there are some RS in there.

::*[[WP:N]] requires that the topic must have significant coverage, meaning "that sources address the subject ''directly'' in detail". Your examples only mention the Master Control Program in relation to the film ''[[Tron (film)]]'', ''not'' as a separate entity. There is no reason to spin off a separate article. [[WP:WAF]] even says, "Very rarely should such spinout articles be about a singular topic; either that topic has demonstrated its own notability, or should be merged into the main article or existing spinout articles." If anything, Benjiboi's suggestion is more realistic, but I still think that there can be a better effort to expand detail about actors and roles ''within'' the film article. —<font face="Palatino Linotype">[[User:Erik|Erik]]</font> ([[User talk:Erik|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Erik|contrib]]) - 13:12, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

*'''Keep''' per Hobit. Seems to have substantial cultural recognition. [[User:Everyking|Everyking]] ([[User talk:Everyking|talk]]) 06:43, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

*'''Keep as Merge into [[Characters of Tron]]'''. This is a well-known movie that has real-world popular cultural success. The main article has no characters section, likely because these minor character articles exist. Marge them together as a split off the main Tron article.
