 * Keep or merge to List of Marvel Comics characters: B. BOZ (talk) 16:58, 5 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Non-notable comic book cruft.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 10:30, 6 November 2019 (UTC)


 * Keep per Wp:imperfect and Wp:NOTNOTABLE. Will look for sources for the character. Jhenderson  7 7 7  14:26, 6 November 2019 (UTC)


 * Update: A reception section has been added. Jhenderson  7 7 7  15:20, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
 * 15 & 16 are trivial mentions not worth including. #17 & #18 are hyper-focused "Top X" lists, which have little weight. #19 is another "Top X" list, but it's at least something. I'd say only #19 has any weight, but not much. TTN (talk) 15:28, 6 November 2019 (UTC)


 * You are not going to change my mind with your deletionist attitude. Still good sources and still keep is my favor. Jhenderson  7 7 7  15:33, 6 November 2019 (UTC)


 * Keep Not a valid reason for deletion. Dimadick (talk) 15:38, 6 November 2019 (UTC)


 * Redirect to List of Hulk supporting characters. Not enough sourcing to support own article, but redirects are cheap, and there's basic info abut the target there. --Killer Moff- ill advisedly sticking his nose in since 2011 (talk) 16:18, 6 November 2019 (UTC)


 * Articles like that list aren’t much better. I would say the Marvel Comics character page would be better if merged. Jhenderson  7 7 7  16:46, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I think this will have to be an agree to disagree, but I think a short description at a focused article is better than keeping the entire, plot heavy, unsourced article at an indiscriminate dump. I would vote delete, but I know that even if it were deleted it would be recreated as a redirect shortly thereafter anyway. --Killer Moff- ill advisedly sticking his nose in since 2011 (talk) 16:56, 6 November 2019 (UTC)


 * Delete Anything from outside the universe itself is far too lightweight to pass GNG. Andy Dingley (talk) 16:50, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of Hulk supporting characters. When templates are discounted, Bi-Beast is only linked in the body of 20 articles. Of those, at least 10 are lists. Of the ten that link Bi-Beast inline, most are name drops like the one at Betty Ross. This doesn't meet my criteria for being notable within the fiction, but it's a valid search term and the list entries already exist. I believe this is the best target because the character is most relevant to the Hulk stories. Argento Surfer (talk) 17:47, 6 November 2019 (UTC)


 * Comment: This discussion was mentioned at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Comics, and some users suggested that it may not follow the rules of WP:CANVASS. Ultimate someone (talk) 23:25, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I'd say project pages are fair game so long as the wording isn't explicitly canvasing for more keep/delete comments, or the poster isn't obviously trying to sway an already set consensus. TTN (talk) 23:36, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
 * It wasn’t intended as much. Also if it was canvas. I failed miserably lol. So no harm than foul. Jhenderson  7 7 7  04:00, 7 November 2019 (UTC)


 * Keep, not the greatest, but I personally think the new reception adds enough to meet GNG. Interesting that it made so many different Top X articles.  Never heard of him. -2pou (talk) 20:32, 7 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep Notable Hulk villain. Artw (talk) 04:16, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep - Let this page stay. I am agreeing with the claims by, , and . --Rtkat3 (talk) 20:43, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
