Merge to List of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe characters. Seems very niche based on content in article, 10+ place in rankings in listicles on popularity, etc. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:40, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to the character list; the few sources from the "Reception" area could be included there. I actually found the character pretty neat, but he is a secondary figure across the franchise with little attention afforded to him.--PanagiotisZois (talk) 13:26, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to character list per Piotrus. The sources only mention it in context of the series, and it isn't separately WP:NOTABLE. Shooterwalker (talk) 18:49, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to List of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe characters per the above discussion. Aoba47 (talk) 21:02, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to List of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe characters. A sensible medium-term alternative to Delete, and an article that can be patched up on and improved. Should sources for GNG be found it can always be returned to standalone. Comment I know next to nothing about MOTU and care about it even less than that, but this flood of near-identical nominations would give anyone with the knowledge to put together a Keep vote far too much research to do. This is yet another case of eschewing a potentially constructive discussion on talk pages that could genuinely improve articles and Wikipedia by selectively merging salvageable material to a strong list instead being turned into someone yelling "BALEET!" because it's easier. I used to wonder why so many articles are neglected. Now I know it's because passionate editors get tired of being at the mercy of lazy rubbish like this.
