The result was redirect to List of P. G. Wodehouse characters. If further sources are found to substantiate independent notability, a redirect allows this to be reconsidered easily Eddie891 Talk Work 20:41, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

There isn't significant coverage in reliable third-party sources, and this fails the WP:GNG. A review of the sources finds either trivial mentions or material that can only support a plot summary, and this is WP:NOT within the scope of Wikipedia as written.

 * Redirect to List of P. G. Wodehouse characters - Non-notable fictional character that has nothing in the way of reliable sources that give any kind of significant coverage that isn't merely being mentioned in plot summaries of the stories he appeared in. The character is already listed and described at the main list of characters, so a redirect is a reasonable WP:ATD. Rorshacma (talk) 16:49, 27 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect per Rorshacma. This character doesn't have any non-plot information to meet the WP:GNG and WP:NOTPLOT. Redirect is reasonable as a compromise. Shooterwalker (talk) 23:02, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep Unfortunately I am very short on time at the moment, but I think a careful analysis of secondary sources would reveal significant coverage. I just had a look at Who is Who in Wodehouse and Pongo has a one page entry there (https://archive.org/details/whoswhoinwodehou0000garr/page/196/mode/2up?q=Pongo). I think other Wodehouse secondary sources would also establish notability WatkynBassett (talk) 06:58, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of P. G. Wodehouse characters. I am sorry, but WatkynBassett comment above is just a WP:THEREMAYBESOURCES. Well, if there are, someone needs to find them first before we can consider keeping this. The linked source appears to be just a plot summary with zero analysis and as such I don't see the need for this to be anything but a redirect to a list of characters.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 05:29, 1 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect- as there are mere mentions available on reliable sources like these needs more Independent and in depth sources to show notability.  Suryabeej      ⋠talk⋡    12:41, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
