List of fiction employing parallel universes

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

We have a decent-ish Parallel universes in fiction from which this was spun off, creating a bad list - one that fails WP:LISTN/WP:NLIST, WP:OR as well as WP:IPC/MOS:TRIVIA. WP:NOTTVTROPES - this is just, sadly, WP:FANCRUFTy list of randomly selected works that include this concept - some of them are pretty far fetched, too (ex. Avengers: Endgame which does not even mention this term in the article). The aforementioned Parallel universes in fiction article will do just fine (although it has some listy content that needs to be pruned). At best, per WP:ATD-R, this can be redirected to the main article - maybe someone will fine something from here useful for merging or otherwise one day. PS. On the off chance this is kept, it obviously needs a rename too. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 23:32, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete we already have a Parallel universes in fiction article we do not need another. GoldenBootWizard276 (talk) 01:20, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete This definitely falls under WP:OLIST as over-extensive - the entire isekai genre would have to be listed here, and that's just the start! ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 03:15, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete as WP:IINFO and redundant. This is already covered in a more reliable way at Parallel universes in fiction. Shooterwalker (talk) 20:36, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete Redundant. Simply rehashes Parallel universes in fiction. TH1980 (talk) 01:46, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete - We already have Parallel universes in fiction as a prose article covering the topic, which itself already contains overly long lists of examples. Having a separate list on top of that is simply redundant. Rorshacma (talk) 02:56, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:FORK and WP:TNT. As noted, we already have a very similar article, so this is a content fork. This is a list of dozens, if not hundreds, of examples, but only a dozen citations, some of which are not even reliable. I've long been an advocate of SF here on Wikipedia, but this is so bad as to be detrimental to the project. 21:32, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete We should pretty much never have both a list article and a prose article on the same topic when it comes to these kinds of fiction-related topics, and this is redundant to parallel universes in fiction as pointed out above. I see nothing to WP:PRESERVE here. TompaDompa (talk) 19:57, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
