- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
The result was redirect to List of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe characters. There is already significant content about the article in the redirect target so I don't think a merge is necessary. This article was basically an unncecessary WP:CONTENTFORK.

- Merge to List of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe characters. I don't have the time to go through and search for sources myself to form an opinion on notability, but this is the obvious WP:Alternative to deletion which preserves the article in the history for possible future use. And I think something from here can benefit the corresponding section at the target. Daranios ( talk) 15:08, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
- Merge and redirect. Gigantic plot summary and one short line of reception. Exemplary WP:PLOTCRUFT. -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:06, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
- Merge/Redirect per Piotrus. The main character list can include a short summary and try to leave out the unsourced material. Shooterwalker ( talk) 23:58, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
- 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.
