This character article currently only has primary sources, and there appears to be no room for improvement on establishing independent notability. TTN (talk) 19:10, 25 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep or merge to List of Dungeons & Dragons nonhuman deities. BOZ (talk) 21:38, 25 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Merge as this is unlikely actually independently notable. SwisterTwister talk 23:20, 25 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and speedy close. Cookie-cutter, unresearched nomination from an unreliable and disruptive editor who objects to the form of the article, not the appropriateness of coverage.

@Hullaballoo Wolfowitz: That's quite the wild accusation! Perhaps you'd like to enlighten us with some reliable sources for Maanzecorian as you seem so convinced they exist? Satellizer el Bridget ^(Talk) 02:05, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Why don't you familiarize yourself with the ArbCom case which placed a lengthy topic ban on the nom in this area, now unhappily expired, and check out their history, which includes, for example, a relatively recent effort to purge articles on George Orwell's fiction and characters, on the preposterous claim that it had not received significant critical attention? Your lack of knowledge does not justify attacking better-informed editors. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by administrators since 2006.

Merge/delete, no reliable sources from what I can tell. WP:NOTINHERITED, Maanzecorian needs to demonstrate notability independent of the D&D franchise. Satellizer el Bridget ^(Talk) 02:05, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Merge. Definitely a useful redirect, but there does not seem to be enough real-world notability to justify a stand-alone article. Josh Milburn (talk) 17:39, 6 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
