Wild Weasel (G.I. Joe)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Currently sourced to a publication that seems to be affiliated with the comics (likely primary), the comics themselves, and a site titled "yojoe.com" that I would personally not consider to be a reliable source. A WP:BEFORE search does not turn up substantial coverage in reliable, independent sources; mostly pinterest, fan sites, action figure sales sites, etc. Hog Farm (talk) 02:15, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Redirect to List of Cobra characters. This article is sourced mostly to primary sources, and of the non-primary sources one is used to back up in-universe plot info, so there is no reason to suspect it contributes to notability, and the other describes itself as an "Action Figure Database" and does not look reliable at all. Article also fails WP:PLOT, as it is written entirely from an in-universe perspective. Devonian Wombat (talk) 08:24, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of Cobra characters, per the reasoning given in the above comments. I would not recommend using Rattler (G.I. Joe) as the redirect target as suggested, as looking at that article shows that it has all of the exact same issues as this one, and should probably also not be kept as in independent article.

 * Merge to List of Cobra characters per WP:PRESERVE and WP:ATD. BOZ (talk) 02:59, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
