Dirk Diggler
- Dirk Diggler (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
Contested prod. Unsourced, in-universe "biography" of a fictional character with no real world relevance. Fails WP:FICT, WP:V and WP:RS. Serves no discernible purpose that could not be served by Boogie Nights. McWomble (talk) 11:25, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Redirect to Boogie_Nights#Main_characters. Esradekan Gibb 11:47, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Redirect per Esradekan - if Dirk were a character in a bunch of movies or a major TV series, then maybe. But as it is, the Boogie Nights article has all we really need to know about him. If it can be sourced and worked into the article somehow (outside of a trivia section, that is), the Diablo II reference is about the only thing worth saving here. Duncan1800 (talk) 11:52, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Keep copious ghits, character appeared in two movies, easy to find (passing) references in news (e.g. , , , , ), was widespread in the media at the time (e.g. used in the title of a review though it isn't in the title of the movie, , name copied by a musician , inspired a drink ). JJL (talk) 14:02, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- I realize that - and all those namesake things, with proven notability, can have their own articles that link back to their original influence, which was undoubtedly the film Boogie Nights. My previous vote stands - Dirk Diggler, despite his amusing name and fictionally-legendary genitalia, is not exactly a broad cultural phenomenon. True, many people know about him - because of the one widely-released and critically acclaimed movie he was featured in. (And no, I don't think people are referring to The Dirk Diggler Story when they reference the character. Good try, though.) Duncan1800 (talk) 00:42, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- redirect to Boogie Nights and what's this about 2 movies? Jasynnash2 (talk) 14:34, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Comment see here for the two movies. JJL (talk) 14:38, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Redirect to Boogie_Nights#Main_characters until someone can see fit to create an article based on reliable sources. coccyx bloccyx(toccyx) 18:59, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Redirect per everyone. I hardly think something shot on VHS counts as a movie. JuJube (talk) 22:09, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Comment It hardly matters what the film stock was. --Dhartung | Talk 22:51, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Redirect for now. As with Coccyx Bloccyx, I am not opposed to a sourced article and I believe one could easily be written. But this isn't it. --Dhartung | Talk 22:51, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Keep I'd think that this character's being the crossover/inspiration for Boogie Nights demonstrates notability. JeremyMcCracken (talk) (contribs) 23:23, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Fictional characters-related deletion discussions. -- Fabrictramp (talk) 00:02, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- Redirect to Boogie Nights. No reason to have a separate article on a fictional movie character. KleenupKrew (talk) 02:29, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- Redirect to Boogie Nights per above. No basis for an article independent of the film. Eusebeus (talk) 04:07, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- Keep as even a resturant near Kent State University has a sandwitch called the Dirk Diggler on its menu with something like "can you handle all 9 inches" or something next to it. Yes, I am serious. Sincerely, --Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles 20:43, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- You want to create an article on this notable restaurant and their notable sandwich so I can PROD it before you slap a Rescue tag on it? KleenupKrew (talk) 00:36, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- Oddly enough, the restaurant I mention is actually somewhat notable (see ). Anyway, for the sandwich I mentioned see here on the right side of the screen under SUMO CLASS SANDWICH. Notice the bit about "2 hands needed for this 12 incher"... Best, --Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles 01:52, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- It figures they would have an x-wing fighter out front. Anyway, the notable Mike's Place is in Tel Aviv. KleenupKrew (talk) 11:39, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- That place has good food FWIW. JeremyMcCracken (talk) (contribs) 10:55, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
