Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of The Secret Circle characters
notability of a character list is not inherited from the parent work of fiction. This article is almost entirely plot summary, and its content is already adequately covered in the main article about the series. These kinds of articles - where plot summary is taken, rearranged and repackaged in a multitude of different ways to make a bunch of redundant plot summary articles - are a problem on Wikipedia, and are not how to build an encyclopedia. They are contrary to our |content forking guideline, and to the spirit of  in that they cause disproportionate coverage of the work of fiction and artificially inflate its apparent notability. Our |verifiability policy and |notability guideline discourage articles like this by calling for reliable independent sources that cover the subject- if you want an article on a list of characters, you need sources about the ''list'' of characters. The work of fiction itself, and sources that cover it broadly rather than focusing on the list of characters, do not suffice
