I was puzzled of this one. Someone did a lot of effort to create it but Wikipedia is not a TV guide. moreover, the rest of the text is original research. I don't it fits in Wikipedia. Magioladitis ( talk) 05:05, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

- Delete. No real encyclopaedic value. List of Downton Abbey characters is perfectly sufficient. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 16:18, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
- Delete. This article has no real purpose. Everything written in this article, that is actually relevant to the series, can be found in the List of Downton Abbey Characters article, the Downton Abbey article, and the List of Downton Abbey Episodes article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2002:8AEA:DE5F:0:0:0:8AEA:DE5F ( talk) 03:33, 9 October 2013 (UTC)
- I am the article's creator. The html formatting has been spoiled so the html coding has to go. The encyclopedic value of a list article like this one is that it aggregates bits of information about a topic that would otherwise be hard to find. There’s practically no original research here, only the compiling is original. It’s not “perfectly sufficient” to look at “List of Downton Abbey Characters” and “List of Downton Abbey Episodes” because those articles don’t mention all the characters in the series that have died. The purpose of this article is to make note of a significant element of the Downton Abbey series, specifically -- the high number of deaths in it and that they occur regularly. It’s like Thomas Hardy’s fictional Egdon Heath having its own Wikipedia entry in addition to the Thomas Hardy entry itself. This article compliments other Downton Abbey articles but if it were added to those articles, they would become too long. User:Westmainlibrarian ( talk) 21:32, 13 October 2013
- Delete -- This appears largely to refer to people alluded to in the scripts who do not appear and thus have no character. Peterkingiron ( talk) 14:14, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
