Fails WP:GNG, sources provided include two valnet sources (not great for notability), an io9 listicle (okay ish), and meaww which i have no clue about. Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 22:31, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Fictional elements, Science fiction and fantasy, and Comics and animation. Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 22:31, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. Even though the article currently relies substantially on just one major source, the subject itself seems to be quite notable in the DC comic world. It has several good and reliable sources that could be added to the article. I think it's the article's referencing that needs some work. ZyphorianNexus (talk) 23:23, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
- Not voting yet, but stating that there MUSTBESOURCES isn't a valid argument. In-universe importance also has no bearing on an article's real world notability. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 23:46, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
- And are those sources are in the room with us? What can you dig up source wise? Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 04:44, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
- Draftify. This article relies mainly on one source and until its referencing is improved, it should probably be draftified and worked on. Zakaria ښه راغلاست (talk) 23:52, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
- Merge to Larfleeze. That character seems to be notable rather clearly, and there are a number of secondary sources discussing the Orange Lantern Corps with reference to him (an exception being the Glomulus entry of Strange and Unsung All-Stars of the DC Multiverse). So as long as not more secondary sources are put forward, that would be my preferred solution. Daranios (talk) 19:41, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
- Keep per the claims of @ZyphorianNexus: or merge with List of teams and organizations in DC Comics in the spirit of WP:PRESERVE. Part of this page was also developed by @Jhenderson777:. --Rtkat3 (talk) 01:24, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
- The claims of Zyphorian dont hold any wait as there has been no provided prof of such. Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 12:41, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
- Merge to Larfleeze - Larfleeze is notable, but the "Orange Lantern Corp" is not. Unless things have changed recently, there is no "Orange Lantern Corps" as an actual organization separate from Larfleeze - its just constructs controlled by Larfleeze, or people who have temporarily briefly gained similar powers to him. All sources regarding the Orange Lanterns, including those present in the article currently, are pretty much actually about Larfleeze himself, so it does not make much sense covering this as two separate articles. Rorshacma (talk) 01:37, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
- Redirect or merge per Rorschacma. The sources appear to be about the parent topic, with not enough WP:SIGCOV to support a separate page. Even so, this is probably a WP:NOPAGE circumstance for how much the two topics retread each other. Shooterwalker (talk) 18:22, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
- Merge to Larfleeze for obvious sensible reasons. I don't really edit and rarely even bother voting anymore, partly due to nonsense like this. While my Lantern Corps knowledge isn't super-detailed it makes perfect sense as IIRC by definition Larfleeze and the Orange Corps are basically the same thing, so merge. What is dumb is that the term clearly has some use as a redirect and this topic never should have been nominated for deletion. The nominator should instead have constructed their case on the article's talk page as a first point of call, working on how the Larfleeze article could be worked to also cover the oxymoron of the Orange Lantern Corps, instead of just going "BALEET" as a push-button exercise, likely informed by their own disinterest in a topic.
