A Sesame Street character. Equinox 21:09, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Move to RFV to seek attestation meeting the WT:CFI #Fictional universes.​—msh210 (talk) 20:15, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I can't claim that I really want this entry, but it does seem, based on the quotations therein, that the name meets the CFI; see the bottom of Wiktionary:Criteria for inclusion/Fictional universes. —RuakhTALK 20:16, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Fictional character entries, when cited, generally define how it's used in an attributive sense and leave the original character in the etymology. This needs a new definition, and possibly further cites (Do the existing cites count as usage "out of context in an attributive sense"?). --Yair rand (talk) 21:09, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I think enough of them do. And if there's not a specific attributive sense, then I don't see how we can move the character into the etymology. —RuakhTALK 17:49, 10 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The wordy definition is not supported by the citations. Only the partial invisibility attribute seems to be supported by more than one citation. Delete unless definition is revised or more citations found. DCDuring TALK 19:22, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Kept. RFV it if you like. Striking.​—msh210 (talk) 18:38, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
