El Chavo del Ocho (character)

Nothing in the article nor my BEFORE suggests this meets WP:GNG, although perhaps sources exist in Spanish? Spanish wiki article is even worse than ours, so no help there. Pure plot summary, poorly referenced too, no reception/analysis anywhere. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 13:40, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep - If you Google Chavo, there is no lack of results. He's one of the most famous Latino characters. Please be more diligent with WP:BEFORE work. See 1, 2, 3, 4 and a million others. KatoKungLee (talk) 21:59, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
 * The first source is not reliable per WP:FORBESC. Second source seems ok, good find, but the third and fourth don't seem to meet WP:SIGCOV. A million others is WP:GOOGLETEST and not a valid argument, also per WP:THEREMAYBESOURCES. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 02:25, 25 November 2023 (UTC)

 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Keep This is like deleting Mickey Mouse in the English world; I see absolutely no BEFORE done and there's no excuse with easy translation these days to just dismiss sources 'because they're in another language'. It also already has two sources to meet the GNG even before being taken here.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 00:44, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Which sources? Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 04:47, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep – Chavo is one of the most iconic television characters in all of Latin/South American culture. Both he and Chapulin had programs that were different from Chespirito's other works, even if the article itself needs improvements, the notability is undeniable.

 * Keep. The character appears in multiple shows (El Chavo del Ocho, El Chavo Animado), so a standalone article is justifiable if there is enough sourcing. I think these add up to GNG:, , .  Arbitrarily0   ( talk ) 16:26, 4 December 2023 (UTC)
