The result was delete. The problem with keeping or merging is the lack of WP:RS. – sgeureka t•c 13:02, 13 December 2019 (UTC)

List of female Transformers

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This is a redundant character list. There are twenty four other character lists on the franchise. These characters are covered in their respective series. There are only two characters on the list that retain articles, so it is pointless for navigation.

The topic in general at best deserves a paragraph somewhere on the main article with links to the two articles, if they remain. As no important information is sourced, there's no need to merge anything.The only sources currently in the article relate to a character that still has an article, so they are redundant.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete Per TTN. The topic merits a mention but not a large and massively crufty list that fails WP:LISTN.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 23:58, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete as just cruft. Xxanthippe (talk) 00:25, 6 December 2019 (UTC).
 * Delete. Part of the problem is that review sources that are WP:RS are being used as passing mentions or out of context. Its fine to use these WP:RS for reviewer comments on individual characters, but becomes WP:SYNTH and WP:OR when trying to stretch this out. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 14:58, 6 December 2019 (UTC)

 * Weak keep or merge to Transformers. The only reason I voted "delete" in the previous AFD was because the article essentially duplicated part of this article. But if this article will also be deleted, Wikipedia won't mention the existence of female Transformers anywhere. J I P  &#124; Talk 01:17, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete there is an article like this on the |fandom website and on the TFwiki |TFwiki both of these sites are not reliable sources because they are self published sources so it breaks WP:RSSELF JaneciaTaylor (talk) 02:05, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
