List of 1632 characters (fictional)

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

While I am somewhat fond of 1632 series, and some of my early wiki edits were related to that topic, having stumbled upon some of our old fancruft, well... here it goes. Unreferenced list of characters from a minor series. If it was at least partially referenced, I'd recommend merging to 1632 series, but as it is not, a redirect is the best I can think of in the spirit of WP:PRESERVE. PS. Few years ago we deleted the list of non-fictional characters that appear in that series (Articles for deletion/List of 1632 characters) but this list survived an AfD ~6 years ago, although the only substantial keep vote was just making an argument "lists of fictional characters for all notable series are ok". Well, our standard are tightening, and I don't think this argument will fly these days. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 08:08, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

 * Redirect To main page. Abhishek0831996 (talk) 15:11, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete or redirect - The article fails WP:NOTPLOT and has no references to meet WP:GNG or WP:LISTN. It is not a valid WP:SPINOUT because there is nothing to show that the context of the plot information cannot be sufficiently handled by the main article. If the result is redirect, someone using primary sources as a basis might be able to salvage it for a merge, but otherwise no content should be retained at this time.

 * Delete Fails WP:PLOT and WP:LISTCRIT, unreferenced. Avilich (talk) 23:33, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect to 1632 series as an alternative to deletion. 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 20:23, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOTPLOT, do not redirect. A redirect would make sense only if 1632 series covered the characters to some degree, but it does not, and should not: the article explains that "the narratives are not oriented on one group of protagonists with a strong lead character, but instead are carried by an ensemble cast".
