This does not establish notability independent of Phantom Blood through the inclusion of real world information from reliable, third party sources. Most of the information is made up of plot details better suited to Wikia. There is no current assertion for future improvement of the article, so extended coverage is unnecessary.

  • Delete. Insufficient real-world coverage or sourcing to justify a self-standing Wikipedia article. --DAJF (talk) 02:14, 1 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Phantom Blood#Characters. While not notable as a standalone character, Dio is notorius within the series. Gabriel Yuji (talk) 18:33, 4 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Phantom Blood#Characters. The redirect goes to the character's information which is in a small summary form. Not notable for a stand alone article. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 22:50, 7 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
