Non-notable fictional character. I'm not turning up references to make a viable article out of this topic. The current article is completely unreferenced, and written in-universe. (NB, I've also nominated the Coping With article; Dingbatti is a fictional character in that series. Mikeblas (talk) 02:26, 20 October 2015 (UTC)

- @Mikeblas: So which did you also nominate, the book series or the award-wining television specials it inspired? Schmidt, Michael Q. 06:57, 20 October 2015 (UTC)
- The book series, as linked above. I don't see an article for the television specials; does one exist? WP:NBOOKS says that a book is notable if "made a significant contribution to a notable or significant motion picture, or other art form," but that seems like a tenous mechanism of notability. Thing is, I'm not finding support for the specials and series when I search, despite the unreferenced claims in this article that "they" (which?) have won "multiple" (how many?) awards (when?). -- Mikeblas (talk) 13:21, 20 October 2015 (UTC)

- Delete. The article was written by a single editor around 8 years ago, there haven't been any content edits since then. Google doesn't bring up anything that would indicate the topic is notable. Szzuk (talk) 19:52, 7 November 2015 (UTC)
