Notability of the character not established. Character has appeared in a single film, with no immediate indication that Disney either intends to use the character again or to expand upon said character. Information appearing in this article can easily be added to the main Wreck-It Ralph article, and it's highly unlikely that anything could be added to this one that would not be appropriate in the parent article. If that should happen, then WP:SPLIT would apply ... but that isn't now. McDoob AU 93 06:38, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as nominator. --McDoob AU 93 06:40, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment So sorry for the trouble folks. It was my first foray into character articles. I should have read the criteria first. A thousand pardons for wasting community resources. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 06:41, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There is nothing to apologize for. You were being bold, which is to be commended. At the very worst, let's see how this procedure plays out, which is what should happen at this point since the article doesn't meet any speedy criteria, by my interpretation. --McDoob AU 93 06:46, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Wreck-It Ralph, merging any useful information in the process. wctaiwan (talk) 07:21, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Wreck-It Ralph for now at least, per wctaiwan (while merging some of the info, if possible). The Anonymouse (talk • contribs) 08:01, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Wreck-It Ralph. Merge if there's anything to merge. Secondary character, but a plausible search term.--xanchester (t) 11:03, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Snow redirect Can we do that? Or can I as author just "author delete" and paste the simple paragraph to the main? Please, I really don't want to zap resources. I'm the sole contributor, apart from Riley who added a ref or two, and he's a friend, so would be cool with any outcome. Can't we just make this quick and easy? What's the path of least resource expenditure here? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 11:11, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- A snow redirect should be possible; I had put a PROD on this but now realize it is a likely search term so support a redirect. As a point of how to merge info, consider the character section for Up (the pixar movie) where details on character concepts can be expanded there. --MASEM (t) 13:22, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect - Realizing now it is a likely search term. --MASEM (t) 13:22, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Agree with redirect instead of delete. --McDoob AU 93 15:56, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merge per nom to Wreck-It Ralph as no need for a split at this point. Redirects are cheap and this is a likely search term (apparently). — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 13:28, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect and Merge to Wreck-It Ralph if anything. -- Cheers, Riley Huntley 16:57, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
