~~Delete~~Weak Keep change to weak keep per PF. The coverage in books as "Aunt Flo" seem to have enough to at least produce a quality section in the list or as a standalone article. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 01:47, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - You must have not bothered to actually check. There are tons of books that discuss her. [1][2][3] You may just be too young (I know I am), but the Mary Tyler Moore Show was so huge back in the day, even small characters are going to have significant coverage. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) 02:16, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- If these sources exist, why does the article not include them, and why does the article read like fancruft prose? Sottolacqua (talk) 03:25, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - Why? Why not. Please feel free to add them as its always best to address the surmountable issues through normal editing. That no one has yet addressed concerns is a reason to do it... but not to decide to delete an article because somebody else has not yet done the work.

Keep as an easily sourcable character, or at the very least consider a WP:Merge to The Mary Tyler Moore Show. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 20:42, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
