I prodded it with "he coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline requirement nor the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (fiction) supplementary essay. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar. ". The creator requested an AfD, as is their right, so - let's discuss. PS. If this is deleted/merged/redirect, please use SOFTDELETE preserving history. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:21, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom. Relatively minor character in a relatively minor lexicon of characters. A section could be created at Tobias Whale noting his more colorful henchmen, and this title could be redirected and slightly merged there. BD2412 T 03:41, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Most of those who work for him have been listed under the membership section of the 100. --Rtkat3 (talk) 16:12, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete a very minor character and I don't see a need for a redirect in this case. Rhino131 (talk) 04:11, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep or merge with List of minor DC Comics characters in the spirit of WP:PRESERVE like how Joey Toledo and Ishmael are already listed on that page. --Rtkat3 (talk) 16:12, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to List of minor DC Comics characters per Rtkat3's reasoning. Haleth (talk) 06:32, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - Fails WP:GNG and there is really no reason to keep needlessly sending these super minor characters to lists. DC literally has tens of thousands of characters, and Wikipedia is never going to cover all of them. The character lists should be used for ones whose context is actually necessary. None of the variations of the character seem to fit the criteria of necessary. TTN (talk) 18:21, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - A fairly minor character that really does not have much in the way of significant coverage in reliable sources. Merging to the List of minor DC Comics characters page would be inappropriate, as there is no actual reliably sourced content to merge. Those lists still need to be comprised of reliably sourced content, not just be a dumping ground for articles that have no way of surviving deletion due to the complete lack of coverage.
