Minor character from The Godfather franchise. The article is a pure plot summary plus catalogue-style info on which works of the franchise she appears in. (Similar problems are present in a number of other articles in Template:The Godfather). 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. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 11:24, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I wouldn't call her a minor character. And, there is a character study on her at Berkley [1] DonaldD23 talk to me 00:51, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- That's not a RS: The Godfather: Anatomy of a Film is a digital project that emerged from "The Seventies," a 45-person undergraduate lecture course taught by Scott Saul at UC Berkeley in Spring 2018. Basically, it's a fancy blog. And even if she's not a minor character in the film, notability isn't about how important the character is to the movie, but how much coverage she has received outside of it. The most likely place to find RS proof of notability (if any exists) is probably in academic articles on women in The Godfather. It might take some reading to really sort out, since she may be quite important to analyses that don't name her in their titles, but that's where I'd look, at least. ~ L 🌸 (talk) 03:43, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to The Godfather (novel) or something similar as a WP:ATD. A valid search term but currently not encyclopedic as an article. Can be reinstated as an article if anyone finds something proving it passes notability criteria. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 09:08, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or redirect Article is just a plot recap, and there are no sources demonstrating the character's importance outside the novel. Avilich (talk) 13:58, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to List of The Godfather characters#Kay Adams-Corleone. This is a plausible search term. TompaDompa (talk) 20:08, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to List of The Godfather characters#Kay_Adams-Corleone: While she is not notable, there is a relevant list of characters. ―Susmuffin ^Talk 08:43, 17 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to List of The Godfather characters. There shouldn't be a redirect to List of The Godfather characters#Kay Adams-Corleone as this section of the page just has a link to the article that is under discussion for deletion and about 2 sentences of content while other, lesser characters have much more coverage in this article. Content from Kay Adams-Corleone needs to be incorporated back into this list of characters. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 17:54, 17 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per above. Some material should be merged, but the obligation to do so need not be on the AFD closer. User:力 (powera, π, ν) 18:47, 19 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
