Merge and redirect The content should just be included on Minor characters in CSI: Crime Scene Investigation - Galatz ^Talk 15:36, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- @Galatz: Would you leave a redirect? I ask because this AfD was motivated by my creation of Riley Adams (baseball) and I intend to move that article to the space without the disambiguator after this AfD closes. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:08, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  - Yes, in my opinion you would then have Riley Adams (baseball) moved to Riley Adams, but first move Riley Adams to Riley Adams (CSI). After the content is merged redirect it. Judging by What links here there are plenty of pages linked to it, which would need to be cleaned up either way. Most might be from the template, but not all I am sure - Galatz ^Talk 16:15, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    - Agreed, thanks. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:37, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Based on the above discussion, you would need to re-appropriate the baseball player as Riley Adams, then put a hatnote at the top of the article saying this Riley Adams is a minor character listed in Minor characters in CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. There's no point having the additional redirect - cut out the middle man. That leaves us with nothing salvageable in this article. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 15:28, 8 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
