This is an overly in-depth list of fictional items. Dragonlance#World, or a split out article of that if notability can be established, are more than enough to talk about the fictional world. Going this in-depth is something for fans that belongs on a fan wiki. It is just a justified spin-out. TTN (talk) 12:17, 31 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Entirely in-universe plot information. The sources are almost completely primary or from unreliable sources (fansites, etc). The only two attempts at secondary sources are being used to support very little information here (one of them is literally just supporting the assertion that the name of the world is Krynn), and do not cover the grouping as a whole at all, which means they do not help this list pass WP:LISTN. The essential information on the Dragonlance setting is already covered in the main Dragonlance article, and none of the primary or non-sourced information included here would be appropriate to merge or preserve.

  • Delete. Trivial, in-universe material without any reliable, third-party coverage. To see how Wikipedia's stance has changed throughout these years is interesting to see. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 10:38, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge a few aspects based on secondary and primary sources to make Dragonlance#World more round, and then redirect. Specifically the list of continents, what's in Heroic Worlds and Genesis LPMud should be carried over in my opinion. To see how Wikipedia's stance has changed throughout these years is interesting and sad. Daranios (talk) 17:00, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, fails WP:LISTN, as the article is sourced almost entirely to primary sources, with the secondary sources used to contribute trivial in-universe information. Since none of the listed locations have articles, it does not have a navigational purpose. The article itself is not a useful redirect, and there is no information in it worth merging.
