Huh - I can't seem to find any reference to it? When was it made?

Appeared in more than one novel?
No, though probably (I'm guessing) referenced in other novels
Correction: he does appear in at least one more novel set in the same universe, though this other novel is extremely obscure (especially by comparison with the novel that he originated in). He seems to just be referenced in this other novel, so my answer here wasn't technically incorrect and you're not getting another question.

Be careful. Did the question I answered ask about any TV adaptation?

Was the novel made into a Television series?
No. This was the 20th question!
Ah, yes, the questiobn was "series", and the 1984 thing I referenced was just one episode.

Yes! I wasn't sure whether to pick Winston or Julia, but went with Goldstein, since I haven't read the book in many years and thought that Goldstein would be easier to answer questions about.
