Hey OnlyFixingProse, I don't know if you are new to editing, but it seems you are or are kinda unfamiliar. I'm not fully sure about the Misfit Elephant, but Dolly for Sue has several sources and newspaper articles on her from the late 1900s. She was part of a popular mystery for years, appearing on news stories and tv shows as part of discussions. Her coverage was significant in the '80s. Many Rudolph characters from the 1964 film are notable, and although I would not be against a nomination for the elephant, Dolly for Sue is definitely a keep, even a basic google search will get you some good sources (maybe not ScreenRant or anything, but they work). Podcasts too with the voice actress and the discussion can be found on spotify. Im surprised the authors of the article have not added these sources. Hope this helps.

Could you provide some of the sources that demonstrate the
notability of the subjects on the appropriate pages. If there are sources that demonstrate the notability of Dolly for Sue provide them in
that discussion and if there are sources for this article provide them here.
Redirect to
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (TV special) - There is no significant coverage in reliable sources by searching using any of the three names given to the character in the article. In fact, the term "Misfit Elephant" gives me more coverage on
Dumbo than on this character. But, since it appears that "Misfit Elephant" is the official name given to this character on products, a redirect would be reasonable I suppose.

Merge and redirect per above, not seeing how the topic meets
WP:GNG sufficiently to warrant a stand-alone article. Much of the character development is unreferenced, parts of the 'reception' that are referenced can be salvaged by merge but there is not enough
WP:SIGCOV to warrant a stand-alone article. Ping me if better sources are found. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus|
