Only one of the refs is both independent and reliable, the biography of the author. Everything else I'm finding is either primary sources or unreliable. This character fails WP:GNG. Hog Farm _Bacon 14:19, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom. Nothing reliably-sourced to merge here. Redirecting doesn't really work per WP:XY, since Trevor is listed on both the list of TV characters and the list of book characters. YorkshireLad  ✿  ^(talk) 14:56, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, the current article clearly fails WP:NFICTION. Do ping me if better sources are found. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 00:54, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - Fails WP:GNG, and there's nothing showing it has the potential to meet it. TTN (talk) 13:26, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
