The result was merge to List of Greyhawk deities. Multiple participants were interested in finding additional coverage regarding the band that took their inspiration from the subject, but unfortunately, no additional reliable sources were found to indicate notability for the subject on that front. Absent evidence of significant coverage in reliable sources about the subject, the general consensus of this discussion is that the information about the subject would be better suited as a part of the List of Greyhawk deities, rather than as its own article.

This doesn't establish notability. The current link about the band doesn't appear to mention the connection in its current state, but that alone isn't enough either way. TTN (talk) 18:49, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep, especially if we can find more sources regarding the inspiration for the band, or merge to List of Greyhawk deities. BOZ (talk) 20:05, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Merge or redirect to the appropriate list. Some third-party sources are going to have to be provided before any notability claim is credible. The band link is interesting, but nowhere near enough on its own. Josh Milburn (talk) 22:54, 28 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Merge to List of Greyhawk deities. The only non-primary sources are about the band, not the deity, and is in the context of little more than a bit of trivia regarding the band's name origin.  That doesn't really do much to establish notability for the actual fictional character itself.  Its a decent enough bit of information that can be merged into the deities list, but is not enough by itself to support having this be a separate article.  64.183.45.226 (talk) 20:10, 30 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Although I enjoy D&D and the Greyhawk setting, I would say check if all this is in List of Greyhawk deities, then if that is true, Redirect to List of Greyhawk deities 68.233.214.74 (talk) 21:37, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Merge to List of Greyhawk deities seems the most appropriate course of action in this case. Aoba47 (talk) 16:16, 6 February 2017 (UTC)
