Haly's Circus

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Complete unreferenced. BEFORE shows mentions in passing and some plot summaries. I am not seeing any work that has analyzed the significance of this fictional location or such. In general, fictional locations are rarely notable, much less often then characters. Anyway, this fails WP:NFICTION/WP:GNG. I am supportive of any SOFTDELETE/PRESERVE to some list of fictional locations, but there is nothing to merge (given zero references). Could consider redirecting to Dick Grayson, I guess, since it is likely the most relevant article. Still, I prefer to have a discussion here, in case someone would like to argue this topic can be rescued as a stand-alone article; instead of a "stealthy" deletion by redirect which I am not very fond of. So, thoughts? Salvageable, redirect or delete? (My recommendation is a redirect). Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 10:38, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep Another WP:POINTy AfD after the PROD was shot down. Article is not without references, as nominator claims. The Banner  talk 22:43, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Riiight, a singular reference to primary source (" Detective Comics #38. DC Comics.")... what is POINTy is your copypaste comments on all AfDs I am starting. --<sub style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 03:32, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Dick Grayson, it is him who comes close to making it notable. Since the article lacks any non-primary sources, I am not sure we really have anything to merge.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:35, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete or redirect unless sources that can establish notability are presented. TTN (talk) 23:58, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - I would like to see more sourced info before considering it as a keeper. I can't find much. GizzyCatBella  🍁  05:46, 15 March 2020 (UTC)
