No references and no real-world information. The Almightey Drill (talk) 00:24, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2014 February 22. —cyberbot I ^Notify_Online 00:59, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak keep per 1 and 2 and other such references. There's enough real-world, non-Simpsons analysis of the character to warrant an article. I don't necessarily like it but trying to delete even "second tier" characters from franchises like The Simpsons will often be a fruitless endeavour. Stalwart111 10:52, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. He's more notable than anyone who will ever comment in this AFD. :) --doncram 01:24, 23 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge to List of recurring The Simpsons characters. Otto is no more notable than Agnes Skinner, Kirk Van Houten, Helen Lovejoy, or a host of other characters who have already been redirected to that article.--NukeofEarl (talk) 18:09, 27 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge, as per NukeofEarl. Not significant enough to merit own page, much better served on the larger Simpsons character page. mikeman67 (talk) 01:47, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
