The result was delete, the one keep opinion was apparently based on a misunderstanding. Sandstein 19:59, 20 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently a minor character in a novel that does not even have its own article yet. Wizardman 19:30, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - it may be a very poor article in terms of content, but I get the impression that this character was the basis of one of Holmes' investigations, in which case she wouldn't be a minor character. In which case the article should stay. But, I'm not sure as I haven't read the book in question, but I thought I should point that out. It definately needs renaming though - Cordelia Naismith (character) would be better or just the name on its own. Lradrama 19:38, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment This seems weird to me. "The Adventure of the Lady on the Embankment" is a short story by Bujold (involving Holmes), but I don't think there's quite enough to sustain an article on the basis of a singular story in this case. I won't say delete, but I am slightly dubious at this point. FrozenPurpleCube 22:04, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment/Keep - I am the creator of this page but not the content. Some unsigned user added all the content shown on this page to the Cordelia Naismith page. The characters are completely unrelated, except for the fact that they share the same name and are created by the same author. I felt that they should be separated. SO I did it. However, I know nothing about the character beyond what the unsigned unknown user added. I am making no claim about the value of this character page, I just think that it should be separate from the Cordelia Naismith page. I was hoping for the unsigned user to actually contribute more.

- Keep The protagonist of each individual Homes story is notable, as is the story, there being criticism on all of them. DGG (talk) 21:46, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Just to be clear, this isn't a Holmes story by Arthur Conan Doyle, but one by another author using the character. FrozenPurpleCube 02:22, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Does not have significant coverage in reliable secondary sources independent of the topic to establish notability or provide real world context. Jay32183 02:13, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete unless reliable secondary sources can be found. Incidentally, if deleted, it would be worthwhile to mention at Cordelia Naismith that the author used the same name in an otherwise unrelated story. Indeed, that's the sort of real-world context that WP:WAF recommends. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 22:27, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
