Original nomination reason given:
- This article cites no sources, and is only a paragraph long. It could not be much longer since we do not know much more about the underwhelming Lost character. Bibbly Bob (talk) 11:36, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Characters_of_Lost#Frank_Lapidus. This character isn't as distinct as many other characters without an article, and I cannot see a reason for a separate page. ∗ \ / (⁂) 12:47, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. The current article is a copyright violation, as it is copied from LostPedia, which is licensed CC-BY-NC-ND. I am not deleting it immediately, however, but simply blanking the text to allow the AfD to proceed. (It is still visible in history, but we cannot publish copyrighted text even during the time of an AfD.) This article has been created in the past as an infringement of that same source. If consensus is for deletion, I recommending protecting the redirect to prevent this space being used to violate copyright again. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:31, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect. Played a relative minor role in series 4, and a relatively minor role in series 5. No references, and difficult to see how decent refs could be found. Cheers, This flag once was redpropagandadeeds 23:39, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete & Redirect - The character is not notable enough at this time to have its own article. I say delete the page history because it is a copyright violation. --Jackieboy87 (talk · contribs) 03:11, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete and redirect sounds reasonable. ChildofMidnight (talk) 04:52, 19 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
