Pharagos: The Battleground

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

This niche D&D setting seems to fail GNG badly, and it suffers from major WP:OR issues. I'd have prodded it but frankly I wonder if this is not an outright WP:HOAX as I cannot find any reliable source that even confirms this is a thing (three sources cited are not online and do not mention this in their heading). Assuming this is not a hoax, I am not sure if there is a possible redirect target (merge is unlikely to make sense, either, given a single footnoote).

 * Comment Never heard of it either, but it seems plausible but NN, rather than a hoax. It references real magazines; someone with access to the archives could check, but it's not clear what should be done with this. Jclemens (talk) 06:18, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete There is mention of Phargos here, so maybe not a hoax, but still would struggle to be notable. It is close to "thing someone made up one day" level. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 06:20, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Merge to Illithid. BOZ (talk) 07:13, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
 * @BOZ Why? And merge what, exactly? Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 08:26, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
 * The one paragraph that is sourced can be merged. BOZ (talk) 08:29, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
 * I would also dispute this, since it appears to be fanmade lore and has nothing to do with official lore. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 09:15, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
 * A second mention, it's real: BOZ (talk) 17:05, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Merge to Illithid based on the primary, non-fanmade sources found. Also appears, without much detail, in this The Gamer article. Daranios (talk) 10:39, 25 December 2023 (UTC)
