Jake Featherston

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable fictional character from a somewhat obscure alternate history series. Sources currently in the article are either unreliable or consist solely of passing mentions in the context of plot summaries. The best coverage is the scifi.com piece, which just refers to Featherston as a megalomaniac and a scoundrel. Aside from a handful of passing mentions in marginal sources about this figure being the fictional Confederate Hitler, I can find no significant coverage for this fictional character outside of plot summaries.

Delete. Wikipedia is not a fan wiki or a site to catalog every fictional character. Not a well-known character or one known in pop culture. wizzito &#124; say hello!  20:08, 23 July 2021 (UTC) Merge if it is not a keep. This article may help the main novels article which is looking very short. Leanne Sepulveda (talk) 18:25, 25 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Southern Victory, maybe merge a little bit. Not seeing enough (if any) independent coverage to make him warrant a stand-alone article, I am afraid. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 05:19, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete: Per Nom. Terrible article that is woefully under sourced. The issues are insurmountable. Two projects have this listed a a B-class article yet the criteria is not even close to being met. The article is contradictory. The leads presents the subject as being the "equivalent of Adolf Hitler" and the article body attempts to paint another picture while still maintaining the subject is an analog to Adolf Hitler. The entire "Biographical summary" section has one source so there is no way to tell how much is original research, plagiarism, or copyright violations. There are likely other valid reasons that rescue cannot resolve. -- Otr500 (talk) 09:52, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
