This article is far too short on its own. I mean, there is only one character listed here, and thats it. I really don't see why this list should even exist, nor do I think we couldn't just list every single character in the Lists of characters article.

Comment I have notified WikiProject Coronation Street and WikiProject Fictional Characters of this debate. –anemone projectors– 09:54, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or merge. 1) I think this would have been best handled under a single nomination, since five similar articles have been nominated for deletion. 2) I don't think it's right to delete them just because there aren't many characters listed. I think it's possible to improve on them, but also they could probably be merged with adjoining years. I don't understand the comment "nor do I think we couldn't just list every single character in the Lists of characters article", and as for Clarityfiend's comment (on the AFD for the 1967 list) that List of Coronation Street characters is in chronological order, that only lists the present characters, and List of past Coronation Street characters is in alphabetical order. –anemone projectors– 09:54, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
