'''Merge''' into [[Tron (film)]]. It seems that Tron is a popular movie and a large article, so this article would be a nice addition to it. <font color="amaranth">[[User:NuclearWarfare|NuclearWarfare]]</font>''''' ^{<font color="green">[[User talk:NuclearWarfare|contact me]]</font>}'''''_{<font color="purple">[[Special:Contributions/NuclearWarfare|My work]]</font>} 21:07, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

*'''Keep''' or at least '''merge and redirect''' to [[Tron (film)]] or a new [[Characters of Tron]] article. As a major character in a relatively popular film, it's notability is certainly suggested by being a character in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'' and being parodied on ''[[South Park]]''. Please also note that the searching for "Master Control Program" and Tron gets 34 hits at [http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=%22Master%20Control%20Program%22%20Tron Google Scholar], showing ''academic'' notability. While I don't have access to most of these items, some of the search results suggest more than just incedental coverage of the subject in relation to the film, e.g. the title of the article '[http://www.jstor.org/pss/1212218 Sign of the Times: The Computer as Character in" Tron, War Games", and" Superman III"]' suggests that it probably does have analysis of the character itself. But even if the notability of this character weren't sufficiently independent of the film, there is no reason to delete this article for lack of notability when an appropriate merge target exists.
