Redirects to SNH48 keep getting deleted. This is basically a list of names, nothing more, of members of a subgroup. Most of the references are to the subgroup's website, the rest is promotional chatter like this. Drmies (talk) 02:57, 19 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep! If the group were to be involved in other activities in the future that may gain them more exposure, it would be more work to reinstate the page than to have it constantly redirected to SNH48. SHY48 has its own unique activities, and by including them in SNH48's page, it seems like including slightly irrelevant content. Who knows, members of this subgroup may turn out to be quite notable in their own ways. LMX97 (talk) 03:19, 19 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, who knows--well, if those members become notable, they can get their own article; that's irrelevant for the appropriateness of this list of trivia. I note that you give no evidence of notability by way of reliable sources. Drmies (talk) 03:24, 19 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per Drmies, and I concur with his analysis of the sourcing. There is no evidence that this subject meets our inclusion guidelines. TonyBallioni (talk) 17:11, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
