 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was redirect to List of P. G. Wodehouse characters. The content shall be preserved in the page history if anyone wants to merge content into the list article. Right now that list is just a list of names, and might require splitting if it is to be expanded into a more detailed list with sections for each character. – filelakeshoe (t / c) 🐱 11:34, 12 December 2022 (UTC)

The topic does not have WP:SIGCOV in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. WP:BEFORE only found licensed sources affiliated with the subject, or database style coverage without any significant real-world reception.

 * Redirect to List_of_P._G._Wodehouse_characters unless it is improved. Right now, the article doesn't suggest the topic is notable, and my BEFORE didn't return anything useful, just few mentions in passing. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 07:23, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep. I see that this might be considered a borderline case, but I think there is enough material here for WP:GNG:
 * a).
 * b) He is listed six times in this secondary source: A bibliography and reader's guide to the first editions of P. G. Wodehouse.
 * c) He is listed 5 times in his secondary source: Plum sauce.
 * d) He is listed 4 times in his secondary source: Wodehouse at work to the end. WatkynBassett (talk) 10:27, 26 November 2022 (UTC)

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

 * Weak keep I think with the sources above we're at GNG, but just barely. Oaktree b (talk) 01:12, 5 December 2022 (UTC)

 * Redirect to List of P._G. Wodehouse characters - In the linked sources above, in the pages that are actually available to see in the preview, I am not actually seeing anything that would be considered significant coverage. There are either just brief mentions (usually in the context of plot summary or even just direct quotes from the stories) or just his name in a list of characters that appear in a particular story without really anything further. I don't believe any of this would actually count as significant coverage that would pass the WP:GNG, and none of it really provides any type of actual content that would be able to be used to improve this as a stand alone article.

 * Redirect to List of P. G. Wodehouse characters. Other than Who's Who, from what I can see Spiderone's sources are just passing mentions, and the Who's Who entry isn't much better, mostly brief plot regurgitations. Clarityfiend (talk) 21:27, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to the list. Significant coverage is debatable, but this is a verifiable character with some sources that we should WP:PRESERVE. Archrogue (talk) 20:36, 6 December 2022 (UTC)
