Previously prodded concern from ip was non notable mascot does not meet WP:GNG. Sources are primary and can't find sufficient coverage. Suggest merge into team article. Edinburgh Wanderer 11:38, 16 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Insufficient sources provided to qualify as notable college mascot. --GrapedApe (talk) 12:37, 16 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merge per nom with East Carolina Pirates. Only the description and a synopsis of the history should be merged. The rest should go to the wastebasket.---Michaelzeng7 (talk - contribs) 17:49, 16 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and redirect Until such time as PeeDee is visiting children's hospitals regularly, helping in community cleanup drives, appearing on annual telethons for some worthy cause, or just basically is in the spotlight outside of the stadium performing some notable deeds, I see PeeDee as an integral part of the East Carolina Pirates article.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Mascot information belongs in the coverage of any college sports program. Whether Pee Dee needs his own page right now is a borderline call, and I don't have any great problem with the proposal to merge to East Carolina Pirates, but deletion would not be appropriate here. --Arxiloxos (talk) 19:47, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
