List of Fables characters (Thirteenth Floor Fables)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Waste of time AfD due to someone who clearly cannot read. Duplicative content of List of Fables characters that is not a justified split. TTN (talk) 18:16, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete - Duplicative of List of Fables characters, and no sources whatsoever on this subset of the characters that would justify a needed split into a separate article. As the content is not only unsourced, but exactly the same, merging is not needed, and as this is not a particularly plausible search term, a Redirect would not be helpful.

 * If it were down to me, I would just delete List of Fables characters as a pile of cruft. but that is just my opinion. I am not sure why the there is a slightly uncivil tone to the deletion rationale. The article was still prodded when I looked just now. It is deprodded because I don't think it should have been prodded. We are just having a difference of opinion. When I split the article 7 years ago and created this article then I did it properly and it was not a duplicate. That was done by someone botching a reverse of the split. Being a duplicate is not by itself a reason for deleting the article, it can be solved by editing. If we cannot do my preferred idea of getting rid of List of Fables characters entirely then I think the article should have the deleted sections removed and replaced with redirects to this article like I did in the first place.

 * You didn't remove the PROD. It was another user doing a pointless driveby of the majority of my active PRODs without actually addressing anything. That's entirely their right to do with how PRODs work, but it doesn't make it any less lazy and disruptive (especially considering how cut and dry this case is). As to the actual content, the splits are arbitrary (we do not continuously expand on plot content, we trim it), and nobody ever actually edited them in any capacity in comparison to the main article. There is really nothing to be solved other than their removal duplicative material. I plan on very minimum cutting down the main character list, if not simply nominating it for deletion, after these duplicate lists are removed. TTN (talk) 15:51, 25 April 2021 (UTC)
 * It looks like what you removed is the talk page PROD notice, which is simply a record of the PROD to allow for no future duplicate PRODs to be placed via Twinkle. TTN (talk) 15:53, 25 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete- duplicates already existing content (badly), and the title is no use as a redirect. TTN is right that the deprod rationale missed the point entirely. Reyk YO! 12:07, 27 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Comment- further to that, this was one in a series of nine rapid-fire deprods within the space of about 12 minutes- all of TTN's PRODs. I argue that deprodding based on targeting a single editor and without taking the tiniest glance at the articles themselves is disruptive. Reyk YO! 12:15, 27 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete: obvious redundant CFORK is obvious and redundant.   SITH   (talk)   01:26, 8 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete: Delete. Not a notable grouping, fails NLIST/LISTN, whichever is relevan. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 03:28, 8 May 2021 (UTC)
