Amaunator

edit

Reads like a nonsense hoax. From some Googling it seems to be a character from Icewind Dale, or something to do with it. "Netherese" "Amaunator" got 90 hits. Regardless, I don't think an ancient God who is practically unknown to Google is notable. Hedley 00:33, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)

  • Merge or keep fictional ancient deities. Kappa 00:52, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Much as it pains me, keep and expand. Almost 5500 google hits. Pburka 01:00, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • Don't search for "Amaunator", as its also a word in French it seems, which is where about 3,500 or so of this hits are coming from. Add Netherese and the hits go down rapidly. Hedley 01:23, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
      • Good point. But searching for Amaunator god still yields almost 1200 hits. I think it's some sort of Dungeons and Dragons thing. As notable as a Pokémon. Maybe merge and redirect to Dead god (Dungeons & Dragons) Pburka 01:28, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)

*Delete I... I... think this is fiction, and it gets only 121 Google hits by my count. Non notable, unless someone can prove the Netherese were a real people and Amaunator was one of their gods CanadianCaesar 01:12, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC) **Unless someone can prove notability and/or check his or her fiction.

  • Delete Non-notable. The article read like Manga. ℬastique▼talk 01:41, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, cleanup. Verifiable, but contributor needs to check his/her fiction. — Gwalla | Talk 02:27, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete or merge somehere where it is its context. Nonnotable. mikka (t) 03:21, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge - this is fiction, it probably came from a red-link from List of Forgotten Realms deities. WP:FICT supports it being merged into Dead god (Dungeons & Dragons). -- Jonel | Speak 04:27, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete non notable fictional character. JamesBurns 05:02, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge or keep and cleanup. Forgotten Realms is an extremely popular setting, and I recognized the reference despite minimal familiarity. A. J. Luxton 07:09, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge per WP:FICT. Not sufficiently important for an independent page. Martg76 07:57, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, but certainly needs work jamesgibbon 12:00, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge, minor entity not worthy of its iwn article. -R. fiend 14:04, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge with List of deities of Dungeons & Dragons. Stilgar135 17:13, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep and cleanup, if you were to merge you would have to merge with List of Forgotten Realms deities. But that page is just enumeration and would need a major do-over to be able to merge with Amaunator. -Ovrad 21:06, 29 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • I've updated the page, it makes a lot more sense now. -Ovrad 22:12, 06 Jul 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge with the appropriate deities page on the game described -Rob Church 23:44, 01/07/2005 (GMT)
  • Keep - Diety in an extremely notable campaign setting in an extremely notable roleplaying game. Cyclone49 2 July 2005 15:58 (UTC)
