The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was no consensus. Despite some keep !votes with questionable arguments, noone who wants to delete the article has sufficiently explained why the coverage presented in the AfD and in the article do not meet the standards of WP:GNG, for example the Camus chapter [1] or the sources mentioned by Toughpigs.

• Keep or merge but not delete. Recurring DC character. But notable? Maybe. Since she was a featured recurring hosted characters from DC for a long time . We shall see. All it is missing is reception in all honesty. I should note that this editor is just baiting what seems like new articles. This one is new and is almost as just as essential and recurring as Cain and Abel. Jhenderson ⁷⁷⁷ 02:13, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Also please put more effort than saying it fails notability please IMO. Jhenderson ⁷⁷⁷ 02:18, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Note: I don’t where to merge them yet if the consensus is to merge. That could be figured out later. Jhenderson ⁷⁷⁷ 02:23, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• keep Recurring character across multiple significant titles. Artw (talk) 03:48, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete "It's a recurring character" is not a valid argument unless someone can come up with sources that prove notability. There are many recurring characters that lack any sort of notability whatsoever. She does not appear to be a particularly notable character and only gets a minor mention in List of Lucifer characters. The article itself is WP:ALLPLOT cruft._{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 06:36, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • It has publication history. Not all is just plot and cruft. Jhenderson ⁷⁷⁷ 14:23, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Vote pending: Waiting to see the coverage asserted above. Maybe my Google Fu needs adjustment, or maybe any coverage was lost in a sea of other "Adam and Eve" stuff, but all I was able to dig up was this: https://screenrant.com/lucifer-dc-comic-characters-hoping/ Darkknight2149 08:14, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: Article does not meet WP:GNG or WP:FICTION, sources are either primary (not secondary WP:IS WP:RS sources with WP:SIGCOV) or fancruft, promotional, or mentions, nothing that meets SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and indepth. WP:BEFORE showed nothing that would establish notability. I don't think there is content worth merging, but if someone sees material that is not WP:OR / WP:SNYTH and is properly sourced I'd consider a merge.   // Timothy :: talk  15:50, 19 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and saying there is no content worth merging is way too harsh. She was on List of The Sandman characters and List of Lucifer characters. Though those two she is not an original character on. Jhenderson ⁷⁷⁷ 16:42, 19 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - As with the other related articles, coverage is pretty non-existent. This does not meet WP:GNG. TTN (talk) 23:14, 19 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Pure plot summary (WP:FANCRUFT), no reception, analysis, significance, nothing to make it pass WP:NFICTION or WP:GNG. Do ping me if better sources are presented. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:59, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: There is coverage already present in the article that has not been addressed, including American Comic Book Chronicles and Back Issue! which are reliable independent sources. — Toughpigs (talk) 16:13, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment 2:I added info to the point I think it is notable enough to be merged NOT deleted. I am not sure she is notable enough character yet as an article compared to her sons since she doesn’t play a major role in The Sandman as much. Though I think she has enough relevance to merge or conjoined to something relevant to DC Comics. Jhenderson ⁷⁷⁷ 02:16, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Sizable article well supported with references. The nomination reference of ‘real world’ makes no sense to me - that certainly does not seem to be a relevant criteria here.--Concertmusic (talk) 20:26, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep for now, as there is no consensus for deletion. There probably should be some merging between this and the Cain and Abel articles, but that should not be discussed in AFD. Rhino131 (talk) 15:51, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
