Article is wp:or (and occasionally written in first person point-of-view) about what one character uses to describe a demonic presence in The Exorcist and article contains lines such as "it is suggested", "We also learn", "we find out", etc. Article then goes on to describe "other Captain Howdys" that do not relate to the article subject.
Article was suggested as a merge into Pazuzu (The Exorcist) but has been stale since 2008, and there is little or no encyclopedic information that could be merged. Sottolacqua (talk) 18:09, 11 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment I turned the page into a disambiguation page. If that's not the prefered outcome of this AfD, feel free to revert. – sgeureka t•c 08:28, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep as dab page and merge any relevant/desirec info from the page history to Pazuzu (The Exorcist). Most of that was "in popular culture", which may indicate notability of the term, but I feel this "character" is best presented in the [[Pazuzu (The Exorcist)] article. – sgeureka t•c 08:28, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Your change looks good to me. Do we need an administrator to close this debate? Sottolacqua (talk) 20:35, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
