Willis Jackson (character)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Although the actor who portrayed the character is notable there is insufficient third person information about the character to justify an article therefore I nominate this article for deletion. Dwanyewest (talk) 21:31, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep, mostly per my reasoning at Articles_for_deletion/Arnold_Jackson_(character), although it would also be possible to merge this into a character list. In no sense is deletion an appropriate outcome for a major character from a long-running, notable television series. Jclemens (talk) 01:00, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep as above well known character from long running show.Deathlibrarian (talk) 11:41, 19 January 2012 (UTC)


 * It may be a well know character but there is third person info to WP:VERIFY and show it is notable and stating that a character WP:NOTABLE is not a valid argument to keep this article. Dwanyewest (talk) 15:44, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Keep per my comments as Articles for deletion/Kimberly Drummond (character) (Willis, Arnold, Dad, and Kimberly have all been sent to AfD).--Milowent • hasspoken 21:45, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Using WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS as to whether an article should be kept or deleted is not a valid argument. It is also irrelevant whether the character was part of a popular or short lived television. The question is there verifiable independent information which discusses in depth about the character. Also the characters you used in argument Milowent,Alex P. Keaton,Venus Flytrap (WKRP in Cincinnati),Bailey Quarters and Gilligan (Gilligan's Island) in all the instances viable third person information has been found discussing each character article in depth. You have so far failed to produce one reliable source to assert any of these articles are notable. Simply stating WP:ITSNOTABLE is not going to make an article anymore valid.
 * I have responded to this misguided comment in the Kimberly AfD.--Milowent • hasspoken 03:26, 27 January 2012 (UTC)


 * Weak keep per JClemens. Reasonable belief that this article has WP:POTENTIAL if we give people time to look for print sources. Again, we can do another AFD later if we're wrong. Shooterwalker (talk) 21:42, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
