I'm not seeing any notability for this fictional character. Was previously deleted, but as a redirect. I'm not a video game expert so taking this to AFD not PROD. WP:GNG fail. Hog Farm (talk) 18:41, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Not notable character fails WP:GNG. Hughesdarren (talk) 22:38, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect to Characters in the Metroid series. — Hunter Kahn 23:11, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Metroid (fictional species), which is a more specific target and actually mentions this character. Needless to say, this article fails WP:GNG, as it is completely unsourced, which also means there is nothing to Merge. Devonian Wombat (talk) 23:24, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Restore redirect. I don't see why it needs to be deleted. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here}
Redirect to Metroid (fictional species), per Devonian Wombat. Not notable on its own at all._{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 04:29, 15 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Deleting this Metroid character is in my opinion, not necessary, I don't see the problem, the character appears in many games so it is notable. (preceeding unsigned comment by User:MetroidGuy1998.)

That does not make the character notable per Wikipedia standards. Per Wikipedia:GNG for a subject to be notable we need significant coverage from multiple reliale sources that are independent of the subject. To be blunt unless quality sources are found soon this article doesn't stand a chance of being kept.--69.157.252.96 (talk) 19:47, 15 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I also noticed that they converted the dappage SR 388 to an unsourced article about the fictional planrt, can someone please restore?--69.157.252.96 (talk) 20:04, 15 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
