Lack of independent sources to justify notability. Dwanyewest (talk) 01:50, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Obviously a very notable subject. Whether to keep as an independent article (likely the best outcome) or to merge into the parent subject is another issue. But deletion would be inappropriate. Candleabracadabra (talk) 14:01, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am willing to accept this article being merged into Dukes of Hazzard as a compromise but it doesn't have any independent sources to justify its notability as a solo article. Dwanyewest (talk) 14:37, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The Google News search, above, shows that this fictional character is still getting ongoing coverage. Someone needs to incorporate some of it into the article, but the threshold for inclusion is that sources exist, not that they're included in the article.

If Jclemens is so convinced it suitable for an article why don't you include some WP:RELIABLE SOURCES if you believe its notable also WP:SOFIXIT to show its notable.Dwanyewest (talk) 22:19, 27 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The burden is actually yours, per WP:BEFORE. And no, AfD'ing something and saying "you fix it!" is not how collaborative, volunteer projects are supposed to work. Jclemens (talk) 01:56, 29 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Notable character from The Dukes of Hazzard. I've added a couple references, though it could use more. Gobōnobō ⁺ ^c 09:01, 31 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
