Lena Hyena

 * Nomination - non-notable character that only appeared in one scene of a film. The character has to date appeared in no other mediums, and, unlike other characters from Roger Rabbit, has no established history on film either.  The characters use was strictly referential.  The character satifies none of the standards for Fiction. Delete it or dunk it in "the Dip" (Roger Rabbit in-joke). -66.109.248.114 (talk) 00:24, 17 December 2007 (UTC).
 * Delete. What little information is here, if it is indeed notable, ought to be in the Roger Rabbit article. --Malleus Fatuorum (talk) 00:31, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, non-notable cameo character undeserving of her own article. Ten Pound Hammer  • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 00:34, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Note: Fixed improper AfD creation, moved discussion to correct location. ··· 日本穣 ? · Talk to Nihonjoe 00:41, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, agree with, any relevant info can be moved to the movie article, but as it is this is unsourced WP:OR. Cirt (talk) 01:10, 17 December 2007 (UTC).
 * Delete highly nn. JJL (talk) 04:00, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment the page as written still is about a nn charcter; if it was about the BasilWolverton version it would be notable. As written, I still feel deletion is appropriate. JJL (talk) 03:56, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:V and WP:NOTE. -- brew crewer  (yada, yada) 05:43, 17 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Strong Keep Lena isn't a character made up for the film! She's the creation of cartoonist Basil Wolverton, and was featured in Al Capp's strip Li'l Abner. Supposedly the ugliest woman in the world, Lena had her portrait chosen by a jury including Salvador Dali and Frank Sinatra. The "draw Lena" contest made national headlines. The article should be rewritten to incorporate this information, but delete? No way. Rhinoracer (talk) 14:24, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Incorporate that information -- with citations, especially for the headlines -- and you'll establish notability enough that it should save the article. —Quasirandom (talk) 15:09, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep Seems notable, but we need to include more about Al Capp's charachter and Basil Wolverton's drawing, not just the Roger Rabbit cameo. --Apoc2400 (talk) 21:36, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
 * This article is written the wrong way around: the last section should be first, with her presence in Who Framed Roger Rabbit? mentioned as more or less an afterthought. Given the hills o' books written about Li'l Abner, I'm finding difficult to believe that there isn't quite a lot about this character. I note as well that Lena is discussed in Basil Wolverton, and the sources there are probably also usable. Keep, notify the comics Wikiproject this is in desperate need of help, and bring this back to AfD in a while if nothing has happened. —Quasirandom (talk) 16:24, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep in accordance with policy, style and guidance for the reason outlined by Rhinoracer, and please don't bring it back to afd again because it hasn't been cleaned up. Instead bebold. Hiding T 16:38, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Character seems to have been used in more than just what the submitter suggested (the film). Although article needs improvement, it should not be deleted.
