"Biography" of a television character, written entirely in-universe and not making or reliably sourcing any context for why he would be independently notable as a separate topic from the show. As always, Wikipedia is not a fansite on which we keep standalone articles about every individual character in every TV show; we need external analysis of his significance and cultural impact in real media, not just in-show plot details, to make him notable enough for his own article.

Delete as character is non-notable. Not redirect worthy as there is no list on the characters of the series to redirect him to. – DarkGlow • 13:30, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I agree that this character does not have significant coverage from third-party, reliable sources so this does not warrant an independent article. Initially, I was going to suggest a redirect to the show's main article, which does have a list of the characters, but the character name is misspelled here, as it should be Kal not Cal. Due to this misspelling, I do not think this would be a viable search term.
Delete. Fails WP:V, WP:GNG. User:Bearcat: This type of WP:FANCRUFT should be WP:PRODed first before AfD. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:38, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
