A while ago User:Susmuffin PRODed this but the prod was evidently declined. I suggest merging parts of this to List of Great Old Ones and redirecting the rest to Cthulhu Mythos deities, as I don't think this entry meets WP:GNG or WP:NLIST (and my BEFORE did not help; this grouping does not seem to exist in reliable sources). See similar outcomes for Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Clark Ashton Smith deities, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lin Carter deities. PS. Please do not hard delete this, WP:SOFTDELETE will do just fine, I just had to dig in IA to fill in blanks in the List of Great Old Ones. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:54, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Merge I don't really see why this has to be an AfD discussion rather than a normal merge discussion (which I had suggested in the past, but noone commented), but I support a merge to the suggested target lists as appropriate. Daranios (talk) 20:55, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Merge per nom and per above. This didn't actually need a relist. Jclemens (talk) 15:57, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect or delete - The topic fails WP:GNG. I don't really think the content needs to be retained seeing as it appears to be all plot information. I'm not sure if there are Lovecraft scholars that do deep dives into the lore, but it otherwise seems like most of it is way too in-depth to need to bother covering here.

Delete and/or redirect per nom. There is no verifiable content to merge and it appears to all be WP:OR from primary sources. Shooterwalker (talk) 01:15, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Shooterwalker: What about the parts based on the Encyclopedia Cthulhiana? Daranios (talk) 10:38, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
