This fictional continent does not establish notability independent of Eberron through the inclusion of real world information from reliable, third party sources. Most of the information is made up of plot details better suited to Wikia. There is no current assertion for future improvement of the article, so extended coverage is unnecessary.

- Keep or merge into World of Eberron. BOZ (talk) 16:02, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- transwiki to some gamer site that loves this kind of cruft. As for Wikipedia, the subject fails WP:GNG with no significant coverage about the topic by reliable independent sources, and so the options are merge, redirect or delete. Merging primary sourced content to the suggested target article which is already bloated and uses only with primary sources itself would be like shoveling shit from one corner of the stall to the other. It seems like a plausible search term (if Eberron is still one of the actively sourced campaign worlds?) - so redirect is probably the best move. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 00:30, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Remember "cruft" is not a reason for deletion per WP:NOCRUFT and referring to things as such is uncivil. Web Warlock (talk) 03:08, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- calling a spade a spade is not uncivil. and while calling something "cruft" alone is not reason for deletion, cruft+policy is. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 08:59, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Redirect or merge into World of Eberron. Lacks notability and third party, secondary sources. A redirect/merge is preferable, but deletion is also acceptable. The lack of independent secondary sources will prevent this from overcoming its origins as in-universe plot summary, but it is a major element of the parent article. A very selective merge may recover some plot elements that will not overwhelm the parent with WP:UNDUE coverage. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 06:20, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
