Zero real-world notability has been established. Delete as per WP:NOTPLOT. Was a redirect to List of supporting Harry Potter characters#Gellert Grindelwald. The current sourcing has zero in-depth coverage of the character. The character development section has 3 refs, 1 of which does not mention the character, the other 2 are very brief mentions. The critical response is all about the actor's portrayal, not the character. Would have restored redirect, but recent discussions at ANI leave no choice but to send this to AfD, since the redirect was challenged. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 10:54, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect As it was before, so it should be again. Wikipedia is not a fandom wiki. XOR'easter (talk) 17:43, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect Unless WP:GNG can be proven, this should be a redirect to a list. Right now, the article does not show standalone notability. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 05:44, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect. Why this needed 2nd nomination is beyond me. GNG fail. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 12:07, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I would support keeping the old redirect, with the categories intact. It does appear that Grindelwald is properly covered on the article about supporting Harry Potter characters. As a redirect for this character already exists, I support deleting this article. RedSorcery16 (talk) 01:55, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
