This was prodded by User:Killer Moff as "Fails GNG." then the PROD was removed with no rationale. I concur that the 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. I hope nobody will be mislead by the reference to the The DC Comics Encyclopedia: The Definitive Guide to the Characters of the DC Universe - this is just a licenced, illustrated book companion for the comic fans, not any serious reference work. (Here's the DC fan wiki entry on it [1] and you can see the "quality" of this source by entering it's name into google images - here's the sample page for Green Arrow, for example: [2] - 100% plot summary, zero scholarly or journalistic analysis). At best I can see this being redirected to List of DC Comics characters: V. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 10:20, 11 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to List of Superman enemies. Not notable enough to deserve his own article, already has a mention there. Kncny11 ^(shoot) 17:05, 11 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to List of Superman enemies - I searched for sources, and I did not find much outside of plot summaries and the confirmation that he only appeared as the villain in a single story arc. I was initially going to advocate deletion, as I did not think the sources justified a merge to the List of DC Comics characters: V list, but the suggestion of a Redirect to List of Superman enemies, where he is already covered, is a valid alternative to deletion.

Redirect to List of Superman enemies. Insufficient sources to support a standalone article. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 12:10, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
