 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep One note joke character, but a one note joke character that has persisted since the 60s and has cross media appearances. The forthcoming portrayal by Nathan Fillion in particular swings it for me. Artw (talk) 05:16, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete or merge. Fails NFICTION/GNG. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 02:46, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep I can't really believe I'm saying that after reading the article's contents, but on top of 's statement, when I searched for anything else, CBR did a Comic Legends piece on him (one of their better kind of works, IMO). So it seems that GNG is covered. At the very least it is definitely a searchable term with the movie coming, so I don't think deletion is the answer.  Not opposed to any merge.  -2pou (talk) 17:55, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete A truly minor character who there is no reason to have an article on.John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:21, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Weak keep per above, but these sources should be added to the article (a further reading section is fine). Josh Milburn (talk) 08:11, 28 November 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete or merge to List of minor DC Comics characters. No indication that this character is notable, nor that this article can/will be improved to decent standards. However, if he is really more than just a one-note joke character (per Artw), he might deserve a mention in a LoC. – sgeureka t•c 08:27, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
