The result was merge to Minor characters of Days of our Lives. Sourcing concerns prevail, but those sources are probably good enough for a mention in the list article. Shimeru (talk) 22:41, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A rather massive article without any sources about a minor character in the soap opera days of our lives that has persisted for a vast amount of time. No reliable sources treat this fictional thing in the sort of depth that would allow for, or argue in favor of, having it treated in an encyclopedia. There is also no way to verify its accuracy through reliable independent sources. Bali ultimate (talk) 00:31, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Merge I would suggest this article be merged with Minor characters of Days of our Lives. I already attempted to move the information to child characters, but someone reverted it. My suggestion would be to merge it. Melanie has more notability than Stephanie. Sami50421 (talk) 00:43, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as an unsourced and non-notable article. This sort of thing is better suited to fan-wikis such as on wikia.com. I expect it to be transwiki'd ASAP, so we'll be free of it. Sincerely, Jack Merridew 01:19, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Hardly a minor character, the character is a Brady, one of the core members of the show, as well the child of one of the show's super couples. If this article is deleted because of sourcing issues, then almost every Days article should be deleted as well. Rather than try to think of ways to remove these articles, we should try to improve them by adding sources. Agree that sourcing is a problem. Rm994 (talk) 02:40, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or Merge - All the refs are for the actors, not the character. No indication that the character has any real-world notability. 76.102.27.141 (talk) 01:23, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Check the Stephanie Johnson Bio, that is for the character, on the official NBC site. Sami50421 (talk) 01:34, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Primary source, unsuitable for notability purposes. 76.102.27.141 (talk) 01:35, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Article has been fixed as I can see. A lot of problems with it, have been fixed. 75.69.115.225 (talk) 02:16, 22 May 2010 (UTC) — 75.69.115.225 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]
