No one in the United States has heard of this comics character. Delete as non-notable. &mdash; J I P  | Talk 18:14, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Strong Speedy Keep Well-known and very famous character with many published books and a half-century of success. Google score is 300,000+.  While it's true that he's essentially unknown in the US, that's due to the lack of translated material available (as opposed to, say, Tintin).  No reason to delete offered.

 * Further comment: also, Lagaffe was WP entries in ten languages, and is a Featured Article in the French Wikipedia. Nominator, what were you thinking?? Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  18:25, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
