• Make into disambig- there are enough real people named Roarke that this title is plausible as a disambig. Obviously the current content is unsuitable for the encyclopedia. If it seems likely that people will edit war to restore the fictional content, deleting first is an option. Reyk _YO! 07:56, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge into In Death and replace with disambiguation. The article on the series contains almost nothing but a list of books, and it's entirely reasonable to expect that the two characters who are the central figures and who tie the whole thing together (the other being Eve Dallas) should be principally described there. And the comment above is right: there are a lot of Roarkes—Mr. Roarke is surely better known. Mangoe (talk) 17:23, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Disambiguate I am surprised this slightly promo article is filling such a useful disamig spot. Α Guy into Books™ § (Message) -  07:47, 14 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge into In Death and replace with disambiguation seems like the most appropriate course of action in this case. Aoba47 (talk) 15:24, 15 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
