The result was delete. I am going to leave the backlinks intact in case someone feels a redirect to Shi'ar makes sense. – sgeureka tc 22:55, 22 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Fictional organization with no evidence of notability. Merge proposal has been added when my prod was declined, but with no rationale, and I don't see any valuable referenced content that needs to be rescued. No prejudice to soft delete and redirect to Shi'ar. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:27, 11 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: I'm going to relist as there is mixed views, but only 1 of the !votes (plus the nomination) appears to be policy justified, so a straight delete could be warranted.

  • Delete - The bulk of the information here is completely in-universe plot information, sourced only to primary sources. They are already discussed on the main Shi'ar article, and as there is almost no non-primary sourced information, no merger is necessary. I would also argue that the title would not serve as a useful redirect. If this article is deleted, then List of Imperial Guard members should be deleted as well, as its in even worse shape than this already non-notable article.

  • Delete, the article fails WP:GNG, being sourced to primary sources, one passing mention and one Comic Book Resources article that might help, but one source is not enough to pass GNG in any case. The page name too generic to redirect, and I have my doubts about the proposed target article's notability. Devonian Wombat (talk) 22:54, 19 January
