The result was no consensus. The last two "keep" opinions make no sense, but we don't have consensus for deletion either. Sandstein 18:07, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Plot-only article, which violates the WP:NOTPLOT policy. BlackShadowG (talk) 04:22, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep and trim appropriately. The first four Google Scholar links all appear to be substantively about this character. One is paywalled, one is dead, but each appears from title/abstract to be on topic. That is, this article is banal, but the topic is notable. Regardless, if not kept this should be redirected to the series in which this fictional character appears. Jclemens (talk) 04:29, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete and redirect to Desperate Housewives. Trimming would only make the article a shorter plot-only article, which wouldn't fix the issue. ShuffleboardJerk (talk) 10:37, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep I added some info on her casting and reception, although I could have added more to the casting section admittedly. I can do that if the article is kept. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:46B0:3840:8479:7CA1:8515:5879 (talk) 21:40, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The character is notable and there are many credible sources pertaining to them. While it is true that the article needs work, the plot section can be trimmed and more substantive information can be added. Underclass King (talk) 23:47, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
