Hans Kloss (fictional character)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Procedural nomination; this was proposed for deletion with a rationale of "Unsourced fancruft, no out-of-world notability". I've declined the PROD, as the four other-language versions, particularly the lengthy Polish one, makes me think this is potentially a genuine cultural phenomenon that just isn't well-covered in English-language sources. (He appears to have been enough of a staple of Polish culture that at one point there was a museum dedicated to the character.) Procedural nom so I abstain. &#8209; Iridescent 12:43, 16 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep per WP:PRESERVE. Really a merge discussion. But given the characters role in various series and performances which would be the appropriate merge target? Keeping independemt seems appropriate and in keeping with other Wikipedia outcomes. FloridaArmy (talk) 23:48, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Stawka większa niż życie which depicts this character; not independently notable. Unsourced fancruft and trivia. Does not meet notability requirements for fictional elements; anything that's worth saying about the subject can be said in the parent article. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:31, 7 February 2018 (UTC)
