The result was merge to List of Ulysses characters. As merging is an editorial decision, the other stubs don't need to go through AfD (though you probably knew that). (non-admin closure) ansh666 07:11, 5 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A minor character in James Joyce's novel "who does not actually appear in Ulysses". There are about 30-40 more minor characters listed in the template Ulysses that look like they should also go away. Clarityfiend (talk) 03:31, 21 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - Along with all the other minor character pages. Meatsgains (talk) 04:11, 21 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• (edit conflict)Delete, or potentially redirect to the article about the novel (if there is a good reason for the article about the novel to mention her). Vanamonde93 (talk) 04:41, 21 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge along with other minor characters to List_of_Ulysses_characters. There is an exhaustive body of commentary on the novel, you could probably pull together a pretty reasonable collection of sources to salvage the article, if you wanted to See this Google Scholar search, but it seems much more reasonable to merge the materials.

• Merge to List of Ulysses characters. All the other minor stub character articles should be given the same treatment. Satellizer (´ ･ ω ･ `) 11:13, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Simply Redirect as there's hardly any context to merge and this is quite unlikely better improvable. SwisterTwister talk 03:39, 4 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge - Other stubs should be merged as well. I will be happy to do that after the closure of this discussion. Yash! 13:02, 4 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• @Yash!:It looks like we are trending that way, a bold merge with removal of OR from those pages would help wrap this up, and provide us a good idea of what a merged list would look like. If you do the merge, I can come in behind and help you do some more referencing around the characters and/or a further reading section. I took a Ulysses class about 3-4 years ago, and have a pretty good handle on finding/working with the scholarship, to add something substantial about each of the characters.
