The result was delete. The "merge" opinions must be given less weight, as two out of three are pure votes and don't address the lack of secondary sources. Sandstein 19:09, 12 May 2020 (UTC)reply
WP:GAMEGUIDE material; sourced entirely to primary sources and fails notability criteria for fictional subjects. Wikia cruft that lacks real-world context or relevance. ZXCVBNM (

Delete - The article is entirely in-universe plot information, without a single secondary source being used as a reference. In addition, there are really no sources that discuss this grouping as specifically being referred to as "human deities" the way that other racial pantheons in D&D are. Most of this list seems to just be comprised of some random examples taken from the core pantheon of the Forgotten Realms, rather than any grouping that is specifically referred to as "human deities".

Delete due to a lack of third party secondary sources. Even at best, you have something that should be scaled down, in proportion to their lack of coverage, and merged into a larger character article.

It now has a single secondary source, providing one sentence of information on one of the individual entries, that still doesn't describe this grouping of characters as "Human Deities".

No, two. The one added by Darianos is as you say, the other one uses the goddess Tymora as a small case study. In any case for merging it does not matter whether "Human deities" is notable as a group, as long as the larger group of deities of Dungeons and Dragons are notable (which they are). And sure, the article does go into more detail than is really necessary. But that's no reason to delete.
