A group of IPs and users (who are probably the same person, but that's neither here nor there) has been slowly edit-warring with me for months over these articles; some other editors and I have occasionally redirected them because they are articles about a characters that only appear in one film, contain nothing more than detailed plot summary, and have nothing encyclopedic or out-of-universe in them. The edit warring IPs always just undo the redirects without discussion. Bringing to AfD now to get an explicit consensus on these articles (so that that consensus can later be enforced if the IPs choose to continue edit warring).

The articles/redirects in question:

Veronica Quaife (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (R to The Fly (1986 film))
Anton Bartok (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (R to The Fly II)

Redirect Support redirecting to the film's main pages. The separate pages don't appear to add anything new. Kerowyn ^{Leave a note} 18:40, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment the link to Martin Brundle in the above list is to the wrong person - it goes to the very notable Formula One driver and commentator, who has no connection with the film. --AJHingston (talk) 23:34, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- My bad; corrected now. Thanks for pointing that out. rʨanaɢ (talk) 00:53, 13 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect all and protect against article recreation: All articles are either unreferenced or rely on primary sources, but none of the fictional characters or the fictional device meet the general notability guideline and the content of their articles is a plot-only description of a fictional work. Also, most of the content is original research by synthesis. While Telepods and Stathis Borans are currently redirects, checking previous versions, I do not see a good reason to keep them either.

- Yeah, they were still redirects when I opened this nomination, but given that the editors in question periodically restore them, I figured they should be included in the discussion as well. rʨanaɢ (talk) 16:33, 16 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
