Jones' only appearance is Donald Duck comics, and the only info you can get there is how much he hates Donald, doesn't deserve his own article. TheBlazikenMaster 11:22, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak keep The article right now is not really useful, but it could be improved. For instance one story he was in was banned and only first published in the 80's (originally made in the fifties). I will see if I can find some sources for that. Garion96 (talk) 11:29, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep notable Carl Barks-created character with 68 years of history. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  14:09, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
 * He might be notable, but does he have any appearance besides the Donald Duck comics? I'm a subscriber myself, and have watched some Donald-related TV shows, and Jones made no appearance. TheBlazikenMaster 17:47, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I know he appeared in both comic books and newspaper comic strips. I'm not sure whether the character was translated to animation (1952's "The New Neighbor" short uses another neighbour, Pete).  Even if he appeared in print only, he has a long history and some worthy references, including Carl Barks and the Disney Comic Book: Unmasking the Myth of Modernity (ISBN 1578068584) and Carl Barks: Conversations (ISBN 1578065011).  Also, this page gives his name in some of the foreign-language versions, so it might be possible to find even more sources under some of those.

 * Well, I was wrong to nominate this article for deletion then. But the article is now pathetic. There is only one section, no picture, few links. I will add a stub tag after the voting is over. TheBlazikenMaster 19:20, 23 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Strong keep Notable character in a very influential comic, created by a very influential writer. -  Irides centi  18:58, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
