- Procedural Keep due to questionable motives of nominator and flood of similar nominations leaving no time for anyone to do non-Google research. BoomboxTestarossa (talk) 19:57, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
- Keep Given the recent developments of the nominator's block, I'll lazily copy from my previous !vote:
My opinions of the sources are unchanged. -2pou (talk) 20:02, 31 August 2023 (UTC)Kind of borderline, but there is coverage of him out there. The article may not appropriately reflect that, but the coverage just needs to WP:NEXIST per the Notability test. It's also a bit tricky when it comes to these transformers since there is so much cross-media possibility and so many variations... Does that make it easier or harder to establish notability? Anyway, that's a separate discussion. Here are some examples of coverage:
1. Review from a major Philippine newspaper/outlet that also goes into his history
2. BleedingCool review of a toy
3. His movie death has been covered by a few places regarding what it was and what it might have been by io9/Gizmodo and by Den of Geek among other places.
4. Den of Geek also covered how his toy and character actually came about in the first place.
5. He's also in a CBR list of most powerful autobots. (Yes... a Top X list... that's why it's last here.) --2pou (talk) 21:22, 25 October 2019 (UTC) - Keep per arguments presented by 2pou. BOZ (talk) 20:25, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
- Keep as he is indeed a very well known character in the transformers franchise. Davidgoodheart (talk) 03:01, 1 September 2023 (UTC)
