Cthulhu Mythos supernatural characters

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

What makes the characters in this de facto list pass WP:LISTN/WP: NFICTION? Also, which source even calls them supernatural? Note that some of this is simple 'see also articles that are about to be deleted' like Articles for deletion/Clark Ashton Smith deities...

 * Delete We already have two different lists that cover this topic. This list is redundant. Furthermore, the word supernatural is suspect. Some of the beings in the Cthulhu Mythos are not actually supernatural. Instead, they are aliens. &#8213; Susmuffin Talk 19:06, 26 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. In addition to what Piotr and Susmuffin have said, there is also the fact that I am not finding any sources that actually discusses this particular grouping of characters as a specific set.  It seems like the whole idea of creating this grouping was largely WP:OR.  Rorshacma (talk) 19:57, 26 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete Per WP:REDUNDANT. An unnecessary article overall.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 12:59, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete as a light WP:CONTENTFORK that doesn't really establish its own notability through third party sources. Focusing on one character article will also have the benefit of avoiding confusion over inclusion criteria, which is treading close to original research.
