The article is entirely WP:NOR. I checked amazon, google books, and google for information but was not able to find anything. I didn't think a simple redirect would work here. Peppagetlk 20:37, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment To what are you proposing this be redirected? The article asserts that three movies between two separate Disney franchises have featured this character. I really don't see a redirect as a viable option on that basis--it should either be sourced or deleted, I'm afraid. Jclemens (talk) 22:42, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep The nomination seems to be entirely wrong as Amazon, Google and Google books all contain numerous references to this character. I have cited one in the article. Colonel Warden (talk) 15:21, 25 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- It's not about the character existing, the character exists, I said the article is original research. The source you added doesn't give support to the article. Peppagetlk 05:17, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Non-trivial coverage does not exist for this article at this time. JBsupreme (talk) 19:30, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Timotheus Canens (talk) 00:54, 30 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep – There is coverage from independent news sources for this character, as shown here [1]. At worst a redirect to The Absent-Minded Professor should be considered. Just-An-Average-Guy (talk) 13:50, 30 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, 115 Google Books hits have to mean something. Note also that he appears in three very different Disney movies. I would be pleased if the nominator would nominate any of the hundreds of characters with zero Google News or Books hits. Abductive (reasoning) 06:09, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
