Fictional personality on a local TV program, does not appear notable. I could find no newspaper or other Reliable Source coverage about this character. (He sounds like fun, but WP:ILIKEIT is not a good enough reason to keep an article.) Unreferenced since its creation in 2007. Article created by the performer.

Delete as it appears to cross the verifiability threshold, it fails to reach notability due to a lack of third-party coverage. (This is always tough for local media personalities, especially fictional ones, as the local competition will see coverage as promotion.) Certainly, a paragraph or two could be merged to the WWL-TV article and a redirect created. - Dravecky (talk) 06:12, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete -- Nobody could really argue he passes WP:ENT. There is not the independent sources to pass WP:BASIC. Hoppingalong (talk) 04:27, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
