Redirect to The Little Prince. While there's certainly a lot of mentions of this in coverage of the story, I have a hard time seeing sources to justify a stand-alone article here. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 22:43, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as a matter of AfD policy-based outcome, on the basis of the sources I see in Google Scholar which appear to be plentiful and I'm going to assume that 2+ have detailed coverage on this plot element they clearly mention. Having said that, a merger or redirect to either of the ATD's listed by the nominator isn't a bad outcome at all, and we wouldn't be poorer for the lack of a standalone article on this plot element.

Redirect to The Little Prince - A reasonable redirect, but the entirety of the information here is already present on the main article for the book, and it is clearly not enough that a WP:SPLIT would be justified. Redirecting to the top of the main article on the book makes more sense than either of the proposed redirects in the nomination - someone searching for the term B 612 with the qualifier of "The Little Prince" after would very likely be looking for information on the fictional planetoid as it appears in the plot of the story, not on the real life organization that was named after it.

Redirect. The entry in B612 disambig is enough. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 08:03, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or redirect to B612. This is plausible as a notable topic, but, unless expanded, there's currently so little information in the article that it's almost indistinguishable from the B612 disambiguation page. Note that there's even less information about this fictional planetoid in The Little Prince article, so it's a poor redirect target. pburka (talk) 00:32, 15 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
