Originally proposed at Talk:Randy_Feltface#Merger_proposal but didn't realise this would be the better place for it to actually get attention and had forgotten about the proposal until just now. As I wrote there, I couldn't find much coverage of McIvor outside of his work with the Randy Feltface character and I'm not convinced he should have a separate article. The coverage already here is weak enough that I don't see a notability pass, and the info is small enough that it could be crammed into a section of the Feltface article.

Of note, here are all the changes that have been made to the McIvor article since my proposal. No new sources added so everything I wrote in that initial proposal still applies just the same. QuietHere (talk) 03:38, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
And I suppose it'd be good form to tag DH85868993 here seeing as they were the sole respondent (and opposed) to that proposal, though with the note that I still disagree with their reasoning as I already stated at the time. QuietHere (talk) 03:41, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the ping QuietHere. I'm not overly fussed whether the article is kept or not. DH85868993 (talk) 05:38, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Randy Feltface. I do not think coverage of McIvor's work with Sammy J meets WP:N. Spinifex&Sand) 00:23, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    It did win an award at what is apparently "the second-largest international comedy festival in the world" so I think that's at least worth a mention, plus it's sourced directly from the festival's site. I also think his TV credits might be worth moving over, and some bio details are WP:PRIMARY from McIvor's site so those might be okay to pull. But I won't be bothered by a redirect if consensus says that stuff's not worth saving. QuietHere (talk) 00:39, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
