List of significant others of Friends[edit]

  • keep :- lists many charecters important to the series that are not listed elsewhere:- many other series would have seperate pages for each of these characters.

Not notable. r3m0t talk 22:56, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as listcruft/fancruft. TheProject 23:07, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Change to very weak delete -- I still believe this falls under the bar. TheProject 23:58, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep. As much as I hate "Friends," there are more egregious examples of listcruft. Not to mention that a a ton of articles link to this one. I'm not in favor of keeping it solely for that reason, but I would say this article is at least as notable as many of the ones that link to it. Aplomado - UTC 23:10, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - It's of relevance to many thousands of wikipedians. - Richardcavell 00:04, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Neutral, there are hundreds of articles like this on wikipedia. If this is deleted, I suggest taking a look at other articles like this. Falphin 23:40, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, along with all the other hundreds of articles like this on wikipedia that are just listcruft (once they're nominated for AfD, of course). Fluit 00:35, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I thought everyone preferred the character lists to the individual articles. This is a valid list. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 00:41, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep ---|Newyorktimescrossword 02:30, 8 May 2006 (UTC)|[reply]
  • Keep - I looked at the Friends category, expecting to find hundreds of characters and lists, but this was one of only two lists, which is not bad for such a popular TV show. I agree with CanadianCaesar that this is much better than individual articles. It's a list of characters from a very notable show, so I think it deserves an article. I could support deletion of The Chick and The Duck, though. --Joelmills 02:41, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep : Doing a marvellous job at preventing all these entities getting Pokemon-style individual articles. We should amalgate all sitcom characters like this. -- GWO
  • Keep interesting list, many played by notable actors like Bruce Willis and Charlie Sheen --Astrokey44 15:40, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep lists of minor or occasional characters on tv series have precedents at WP. Carlossuarez46 22:05, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as a subpage of the articles on Friends, wikipedia is not paper. Can we maybe get it renamed to "... Friends (TV)" or something? So that it doesn't sound quite so stupid to those of us who never watch TV. JeffBurdges 11:13, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep notable. Q0 12:48, 13 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep relevant to friends entry. Expands information available on a wide topic and classic TV series. Interesting reading. Mr.bonus 21:38, 13 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
