• Keep The character, the leading role of Green Acres, has been well-covered by reliable sources, from Washington Post to CNN and various books.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] The character described a symbolic and significant image of women in society, referred to by the likes of The New York Times, The Daily Telegraph, The Star etc.[8][9][10] In 2006, when the Green Acres theme song was sung by Donald Trump and Mullaly at the Emmys, both of them paid homage to Oliver (Lisa's other half) and Lisa Douglas in their respective roles.[11] The character's symbolic characterization of women has also been covered in various scholastic studies.[12][13][14][15][16][17][18] Thanks.

• User:EggOfReason. I am grateful to any editor with the initiative to find unsourced arrticles and bring them here, but, do you think that there should also be an AfD for Oliver Wendell Douglas? I could see the argument for merging both of them the Douglas characters to the TV show page, but it seems odd to propose to merge the wife but not the husband.E.M.Gregory (talk) 12:14, 12 September 2017 (UTC)[reply

No such user, E.M.Gregory, hello. Hope you are doing well. I've TNT'd the article and re-written it completely from scratch, adding all the sources. The only sources I've left out are the Google Scholar sources, which any one interested can add. Thanks. Lourdes 14:57, 12 September 2017 (UTC)[reply

• Strong keep: This was a major character in a major sitcom of the period and the most famous role played by Eva Gabor. Repairs to the article cleaned it up and made it more encyclopedic. Clear keep. Montanabw^(talk) 19:13, 12 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Snow keep major character on an extremely significant television series in the United States. The sourcing provided makes it absolutely clear that this is notable. Deletion is the wrong choice here. TonyBallioni (talk) 00:52, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep "Well, you know the old saying: you can lead a horse over the water, but you can't make him think." "What's the matter with you chickens? All of your eggs coming out with names on." "(after the credits have disappeared from the hotcakes and toast) The names just stay on long enough for their mothers to see them." "Oh yes. that's a pernundel (P-R-N-D-L). My husband has a pernundel on his car, too." "It could be worse, she could be allergic to diamonds." "This has been a Filmways presentation, darling."[20] StrayBolt (talk) 06:10, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per above.
