Fails Wikipedia:Notability (fiction) like Jessie and Meghna. Sources are all film reviews which simply mentions multiple characters from the film. Only the first source isn't. Merge all information to Master (2021 film)#Themes and influences if deemed necessary. DareshMohan (talk) 09:22, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: One time character. Hasn't appeared in any sequel, spinoff or remake. Kailash29792 (talk) 10:35, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
- Delete and merge. The information is extremely unnecessary for a single page, and since Vijay doesn't have information on his own page, I say that we can merge it. NoobThreePointOh (talk) 10:36, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

- Keep: The statement overlooks the potential significance and impact of JD's presence in a standalone narrative and fails to consider its cultural or narrative contribution, as seen with iconic one-time characters like Hannibal Lecter from "The Silence of the Lambs" or Tyler Durden from "Fight Club." ஸ்டீவன் ஸ்கால் (talk) 15:11, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

- Hannibal Lecter and Tyler Durden are by no means one-time characters. And don't compare JD to them. Kailash29792 (talk) 15:15, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
Keep: It appears that the concept of a "one-time character" is somewhat ambiguous, especially considering that many such characters have their own wiki pages. Deleting JD's wiki page might not align with consistency given the existence of other one-time character pages. Additionally, if JD's page isn't violating any rules and there are other contributors invested in its development, it suggests a level of community interest and relevance. Comparing JD to other one-time characters like Tyler Durden and Hannibal Lecter, who haven't appeared in sequels, spinoffs, or remakes of fims, underscores the notion that JD merits inclusion and recognition within the wiki.

- Redirect to Master (2021 film) - There are no sources that would indicate that the character is notable outside of simply being the star of a notable movie that has its own article already, nor has any real analysis or discussion separate from the reviews and discussions of the movie as a whole. I don't think merging is really necessary here as the vast majority of this article is simply a summary of the movie's plot, which the main article on the film already has, and the one section for analysis of the character is completely unsourced.
