Unsourced article about a non-notable fictional character or comic strip (or both; the article is pretty confusing) created by a non-notable writer who doesn't have a Wikipedia article. I considered instead redirecting the article to Mountain Biking UK, the magazine where this subject is apparently featured, but the subject isn't mentioned in that article.

• Redirect to Mountain Biking UK - I am finding a couple of brief mentions in independent sources. However, these are all just a couple of sentences each, and are completely in the context of describing it as a feature of the magazine it is published in. Not enough to show independent notability, but probably enough that it should (and already is, in fact - its mentioned about halfway down in the "History and profile" section) mentioned in the magazine's main article. As none of the information currently in this article is sourced, merging would not really be appropriate, so a simple Redirect would suffice. Rorshacma (talk) 16:05, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Mostly per Rorshacma, lacks notability, but a Redirect to Mountain Biking UK sounds reasonable. Foxnpichu (talk) 18:47, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect seems fine unless anyone cares to demonstrate stand-alone notability, which is not apparent from the article/sources present. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:15, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
