Individual Robot Wars competitors are completely non-notable - the chance of multiple, reliable non-trivial published sources being written about the individual robots is close to nil. Delete. h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 23:36, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge - This should be merged with other robot wars competitors if it truly not worth of its own page.--Lucy-marie (talk) 23:45, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge per above. -mattbuck (Talk) 00:22, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, it's not like any significant amount of this can be merged. WillOakland (talk) 02:44, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. This is encyclopedic information about an important element of a major TV series. I note that all of the other series winning robots also have articles. There may be a case for merging all of these into Robot Wars, but that might make that article too long, in which case this a valid summary style fork. Anyway merging and forking are issues for talk pages, not AfD. Phil Bridger (talk) 22:41, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep roughly equivalent to a major character in a popular TV series in terms of notability. Comparisons could also be made with a sucessful player in televised sport. --BrucePodger (talk) 23:10, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Article is notable. archanamiya · talk 23:53, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep There's an analogy with game shows, where we do keep articles on winners. DGG (talk) 15:25, 4 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
