No indication that these breakfast cereal mascots are notable per WP:GNG. All citations are to sources associated with the cereal maker and are therefore not independent. Parts of the article could conceivably be merged to their product, Rice Krispies, but the mascots are already adequately covered there, so that's not really necessary. There's also a second, quite obscure meaning of these names in physics, but as I've argued elsewhere, an article about breakfast cereal mascots is not the place for it.

- Keep, or at least merge (keeping the edit history and adding some of this content) to Rice Krispies. These famous product mascots, more than 80 years old and last year included by the Museum of Broadcast Communications in Chicago on a list of 10 "Advertising’s Greatest Icons" [1], have enough history, coverage and significance to warrant their own article.

- IAR Keep. Sorry, some things you just need to keep. -- RoySmith (talk) 18:36, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
- For those who are looking for something more policy-based than IAR:
- About the characters themselves (distinct from the cereal):
- Mainstream media using the name in a generic cereal context, not specifically with Rice Crispies.
- Sources which have picked up on the character's names to describe joint sounds in the medical world:
