Unsourced article on a fictional species that fails WP:GNG and MOS:REALWORLD. This nomination is related to List of Uplift Universe species, also at AfD RetiredDuke (talk) 22:49, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I am also nominating the following related pages because they have the same issues w/ lack of sources and failure of GNG/MOSREALWORLD:

Merge into Uplift; too crufty for its own article. – John M Wolfson (talk • contribs) 21:10, 11 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment seems like this isn't getting a lot of attention, so I'm just going to argue that I don't agree with a merger since none of the content is reliably sourced. If the best sources we can get on these creatures are the novels they originated from, then this is just a lot of fan-crufty original research. And whether in these articles or in another article, the content still fails MOS:REALWORLD since there's no secondary discussion of these topics at all.

Merge without a redirect (too many hoons:)) to an appropriate section of Uplift Universe, no sourcing to sustain a standalone article, ditto the others. Coolabahapple (talk) 04:29, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Merge selectively to Uplift Universe. Much of the information are unnecessary therefore can be trimmed before merging. Apart from some passing mentions, I can't see RS that deals with the subject in depth, so deletion is also a possibility. Hzh (talk) 13:46, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
