Keep Valid list article, blue links aid in navigation, too long to fit in the main article. Most of the blue linked names are not listed in the other article.

Merge. While the above two make a good point,
WP:OVERLAP applies to these kinds of articles.

Redirect/Merge to
Leave It to Beaver characters. As mentioned already, there is already a lot of overlap between the two, and I really don't see any real reason why this would need to be split into two articles. All of the cast members playing major characters are already included in the character list, and any that may be missing can be added in. Most, if not all, of the cast members listed in both of the "Other" sections really do not need to be included, though, particularly as the information is just being sourced (i.e. copied) directly from IMDB.

Redirect/merge to Leave It to Beaver characters (which should be renamed
List of Leave It to Beaver characters). All of the main cast and recurring characters are already listed there, with the exception of Dana Dillaway (who only appeared in two episodes and as different characters, so no merge for her) and Keith Taylor. Of the rest, only reasonably well-known actors, i.e.
Lyle Talbot,
Lee Meriwether and I suppose
Majel Barrett for Star Trek fans, should be merged.

Redirect per above. Entirely redundant, and nothing to merge as there's no sourced content (only imdb, which is not a reliable source). — Rhododendritestalk \\ 22:49, 28 December 2019 (UTC)reply
Keep or Merge Both articles are long enough to be standalone articles and neither is a duplicate of the other. Many of the entries in the the list under discussion are non-notable and unsourced but that may be due to lack of effort rather than their being essentially non-notable. In any case, this list has been fairly well maintained, esp. wrt deaths being noted.

Redirect to the characters page. Anything we need to say on the cast can be said there.
