Basically the same topic as spell (paranormal); the content of this article here seems unsalvageable (original research, inappropriate tone). — Jeraphine Gryphon (talk) 21:34, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Fair points. Would you say that it would be better to turn this into a redlink, or to redirect it to spell (paranormal)?— S Marshall  T/C 22:36, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirect there, yes. I already tried but I was reverted, so here's the discussion. — Jeraphine Gryphon (talk) 09:38, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete Yes, there isn't much to be salvaged here, and it slants heavily toward fictional contexts. I don't think a merge is appropriate. --BDD (talk) 23:13, 20 July 2012 (UTC)

 * I didn't say merge. I said redirect.— S Marshall  T/C 09:06, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Sure, that's fine. It just seems like I see a lot of merge results at AfD recently that really should be deleted, so I thought it was worth pointing out that there isn't really anything to merge. --BDD (talk) 16:45, 21 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete Violates WP:SIGCOV by not listing sources, not addressing verifiability, and not generating reliability by ignoring those elements. Granted the article is informative in it's own way, but it needs to fit accepted norms for submission. Ren99 (talk) 10:23, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete or Redirect if appropriate target can be found. The article seems like WP:OR and has zero references to support WP:GNG. The content of the article makes it sound as if gaming spellcasting was a major focus, which does not seem to be a focus of the spell (paranormal) article. - Sangrolu (talk) 12:57, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirect to [spell (paranormal]- I see no reason to keep the article but I feel like it's still a term that may be searched and should have a redirect. Ducknish (talk) 01:39, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
