I'm usually more than fine with main stand-alone lists for TV show characters. But this is a 14-year-old character list for a TV show that ran for only 18 episodes, and it has the same WP:NOTDIR problems as those three listed in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of politicians on Veep. Commander in Chief (TV series)#Characters does the job just fine. So, delete or redirect, or (for me inexplicable reasons) keep? – sgeureka ^t•c 20:51, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment And of course I hadn't noticed that this had a previous AfD nearly 10 ten years ago with similar points made, and I had closed it myself as keep. However, I'll counter the there-cited WP:AFDNOTCLEANUP with "this is unfixable". – sgeureka ^t•c 20:56, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- And yet another AfD in 2007 that I had to hunt down to find: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of characters in Commander in Chief. – sgeureka ^t•c 21:02, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Don't feel bad, sgeureka. Notability guidelines were interpreted in a very different way in 2010 compared to now, and I've seen a lot of articles that were kept at AFD discussions 10-12 years ago that would have been absolutely unacceptable today -- articles that had way more problems than this.

Redirect to Commander_in_Chief_(TV_series)#Characters per nom, especially the "only 10 episodes" part. The one time this is 100% plot because no castmembers are attached to it. ミラ P 21:57, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
