Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mandy Hampton
As Mattbuck said, although the existence of articles for ''all'' of these characters is a little ridiculous, some of these articles have shown enough real-world notability to merit being kept. I will agree with Lucy-marie that most of these articles ''currently'' contain little more than in-universe plot summary, but that does not mean that they ''inherently'' lack notability or verifiability and so, like Shooterwalker, I question the wisdom of nominating them all for deletion en masse. Just because they are not good articles right now does not mean they don't have room for improvement. (Josiah Bartlet and Sam Seaborn come to mind as two articles that have undergone dramatic improvement in terms of including out-of-universe information over the past few years.) I also completely disagree with Lucy-marie's claim that the notability has been "lost" because the show stopped airing in 2006. |Notability is not temporary. I concur with Mattbuck's recommendation that we retain the articles for the Josiah Bartlet, Ziegler, Seaborn, Lyman, Cregg, McGarry, Santos, Moss, Young, and Bailey, and possibly also Abbey Bartlet, Vinick, Schott, Hampton, and Gardner (since they were all considered part of the main cast at one point or another, although they didn't appear in the main credits every single episode
