WP:FANCRUFT pure and simple. Unsourced since 2011, not an iota of out-of-universe context. Lists of characters are not always needed to gain a better encyclopedic understanding of the topic, and Rescue Me (American TV series) gives sufficient coverage. See also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Dexter's Laboratory characters as proof that an article can exist just fine without a character sheet. We are not TV Tropes. If any of this information somehow does need to be salvaged, then it can be merged into the parent article or just WP:TNT and start over. Because as it stands, all the article is doing is turning into some big Katamari Damacy blob of ever-growing fanwank. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 01:23, 21 October 2019 (UTC)

• Delete and redirect to Rescue Me (American TV series)#Cast and characters, which does cover the sufficient contents. ミラP 03:14, 21 October 2019 (UTC)

• Delete - There is no inherent need for a character lists. This is an overly bloated mess. The main article and episode lists should be able to handle all necessary context. TTN (talk) 16:06, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
