Rheneas

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Deprodded by with the rationale per WP:DEPROD. Well, since this is apparently controversial, it'll come here. I'm finding toy sales sites, open wikis, unreliable blogs. This community blog is about a toy based on Rheneas, and includes very little about the character himself. The large number of The Railway Series books by Awdry are primary source material, so they don't establish notability. This brought up a reference to Rheneas in the Google scholar preview, but the context indicated a fictional community, not this character. This paper only mentions Rheneas once and does not establish significant coverage. Not seeing any way this fictional character passes WP:GNG. Hog Farm Bacon 18:26, 25 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Redirect to whatever List of characters in The Railway Series article comes out of this rationalisation process. I'm getting all the same sources as HF; there's nowt much to merge, since it's almost all unsourced. YorkshireLad ✿  (talk) 20:53, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Redirect. The usual bad dePROD of the garden-variety WP:FANCRUFT. This should have been speedily redirected, but it such bad deprods that make me fear redirecting without a community consensus behind it, so I can't blame the nom for AfD. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 07:25, 26 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Redirect- Recent AfDs of these TtTE characters have pretty much all determined that they're crufty and not individually notable, and this is no exception. It's probably safe to just boldly redirect them going forward. Reyk YO! 14:11, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
