The result was redirect‎__EXPECTED_UNCONNECTED_PAGE__ to Fictional music. I'm going to go with the nominator's suggestion and redirect this page. This allows the preservation of content should anyone want to proceed with a Merge. Liz Read! Talk! 06:38, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

List of fictional musical instruments

I don't see how this meets WP:NLIST. Perhaps redirect to fictional music, which mentions the concept? Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 05:50, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

 * A Merge into fictional music with a bit of a collapse (no need for sections) seems reasonable. I was surprised not to find any good sources for NLIST on this one. There's a lot of scholarly literature on fictional musical instruments but none that addresses such a grouping from existing fiction. &mdash;siro&chi;o 07:11, 4 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Merge to fictional music. Not everything should be a list; in fact most things shouldn’t. Prose is generally a vastly superior format. This is a short list with little meaningful content, so it’s perfect for nerging. Dronebogus (talk) 09:28, 4 July 2023 (UTC)
 * I am not sure if merging would be ok with MOS:TRIVIA... the current list has no analysis, it's just a list of examples. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 09:19, 8 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete There isn't any WP:SIGCOV for this topic. The list items don't even pass the low bar of having notable articles. I would accept a very selective merge, but most of these are unsourced or WP:TRIVIALMENTIONs even a section seems like WP:OR. Shooterwalker (talk) 03:25, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
