U with ring above (Cyrillic)

Created by User:Cyrilliclols, whose username may be significant. and who has previously created О with left notch. Although this article has a cite, the cite given is to a Pinterest page which points to an original source page that does not seem to support the article. However, there is a character resembling this in Shughni language, so it's possible this might be a good faith contribution, but even if this is a real character, this article would still need a source to be kept. &mdash; The Anome (talk) 10:42, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment the label at the top of the page says it shouldn't be confused with Y̊ which is a redirect to Ring (diacritic) which seems to be a mistake to me. It seems like the letter we are talking about is indeed Y̊. There is some confusion here, but if there really is a letter then it would appear to me notable, no? JMWt (talk) 11:23, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Further thought - wiktionary appears to cover the alphabet in different written scripts pretty well. On that basis, I think delete because WP:NOTDICTIONARY and because wiktionary appears to be a better venue. Is it possible to redirect to wiktionary? JMWt (talk) 11:35, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Sort of, but you need a special template linking to the corresponding page in Wiktionary. 🪐Kepler-1229b &#124; talk &#124; contribs🪐 18:36, 12 March 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep or at least merge to U (Cyrillic). This is definitely a real thing, the pinterest pic is from Omniglot, and there's an example text in ; Xudowandard půnd jītet at wi roh yen rost kinet, which clearly contains the ů (although its presented in Latin). If it's too obscure for a standalone article we can describe it in a single sentence in U (Cyrillic). – filelakeshoe (t / c) 🐱 13:31, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete. The little it's been discussed, it seems the general consensus is that Omniglot is not RS (see here and its couple other links).  The PDF above isn't even using this letter; it's using a Latin variation.  Even if this does exist (and that's a pretty iffy if at the moment), it's a minor point in Shugni orthography, and definitely not notable enough for its own article.  35.139.154.158 (talk) 15:18, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Merge to U (Cyrillic). If the existence of this letter can be confirmed, it should be mentioned somewhere on Wikipedia, but this isn't worth a standalone article. Highway 89 (talk) 23:04, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep for consistency as all other Cyrillic letters, even obscure ones, have their own articles. 🪐Kepler-1229b &#124; talk &#124; contribs🪐 18:28, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
