This article currently fails to establish notability. The reception is trivial. The previous AfD keep rationales were fairly nonsensical. TTN (talk) 16:00, 26 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - When I did a Google search for reliable sources, all I get is unreliable sources. Interstellarity (talk) 19:08, 26 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: No notability, not even a section describing its real-world reception. lullabying (talk) 00:24, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as non notable. As it was @Drmies: deleted a large number of unreliable sources that were the basis of the original keep arguments. Some of the keep arguments may have also been a desire to retain information of interest to fans. In the end though.... we are not Wikia. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 15:00, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Yep. It will take us years to get all this Wikia material out. Standards have changed, and that's a good thing, but all the gamers and anime fans and comic fans have really taken advantage of the old anything goes way of doing things. Drmies (talk) 21:03, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Fictional character. No evidence of stand-alone notability. Not a shred of analysis. Pure WP:PLOT and list of appearances in media. Fails WP:PLOT, WP:GNG, WP:NFICTION. BEFORE shows nothing that's not in passing or a plot summary. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:29, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to List of Autobots, no? Maybe hundreds of unnotable characters in the franchise, but Ironhide has to be one of the relatively more notable. Hyperbolick (talk) 15:29, 29 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I found a notable review of the toy. [1] That's all I can find right now that is significant coverage in a reliable source. Everywhere else is just brief mentions such as "Ironhide was a fan-favorite of the Michael Bay films" [2]. If that's true I would think somewhere out there is more coverage of the character.
