Has only one source, which is not independent. A before search found [1] and [2], the second of which is the only source I could find which could be considered secondary. Even that, however, is not WP:SIGCOV, as it's about the show rather than the character. He is mentioned in a few books from the show's era, but even those only mention him for a sentence or two (i.e., [3], [4], [5]). I should also mention there is a quicklet produced for the series, but this is just summarizing the plot and it's unclear whether it was produced independently or by the network. Subject fails WP:GNG and is not notable. 🌸⁠wasianpower⁠🌸 (talk • contribs) 18:57, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to The Closer#Main cast and characters - I agree with the nomination that there is not sufficient significant coverage of the character in reliable sources to support an article. But redirecting to the cast/character list on the main article on the show is a reasonable WP:ATD. Rorshacma (talk) 19:35, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect or merge to the main article to The Closer#Main cast and characters is sensible, as finding RS seems scarce for this as a standalone, this maybe the closest I found so far , but unfamiliar with the site's Independence or weight.https://www.backstage.com/magazine/article/closers-corey-reynolds-tackles-whatever-role-comes-way-58516/ Lorraine Crane (talk) 22:23, 10 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
