Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Baxter Stockman
That was painful, but this is a clear Keep. Just as Optimus Prime, Ravage (Transformers), and a slew of comic characters. I could see if it was one series, even, but the article clearly demonstrates that this character appeared through many incarnations, both TV and games. As far as the OR argument above, if (and I'm only saying IF) the article does make the analytical, etc. statements based on primary sources, that's '''not''' a reason to delete, it's a reason to add the {{tl|cleanup}} tag and fix the article. A lot of the discussion points for delete are eerily close to  and focus on the article's '''quality''' rather than the focus of the content. I don't like it much either, but |there's plenty of precedent for this type and kind of article, and the subject matter has a sufficiently wide range of visibility and thus notability. Keep should be an obvious choice on this one
