Dark Elves (Warhammer)[edit]

Combination of in-universe plot with 'how to play a game' strategy guide based on WP:PRIMARY sources. Fails WP:NFICTION, WP:PLOT and in general, GNG. Yes, I know there are hundreds of articles about how to play with Dark Elves in various WH games, but that's all PRIMARY. If we cannot discuss the significance of this faction to real life (scholarly reception, etc.), there is little we can work with here. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 09:48, 18 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - No sources, and there's really little point in retaining this information. TTN (talk) 20:55, 23 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep due to coverage in sources. No point in deleting this article. --131.123.51.67 (talk) 15:26, 25 November 2019 (UTC)Sock of permabanned user A Nobody Reyk _YO! 17:06, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: There's so far no well-reasoned "keep", but do we redirect or simply delete?

Delete then redirect- As a title it's useful, but the only reason for preserving the history would be if there was any chance any of the current content could come in handy later on. That's clearly not the case here. Reyk _YO! 15:42, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete & Redirect to Races and nations of Warhammer Fantasy#Elves per Reyk - The term could potentially serve as useful redirect to the appropriate place in the master "races" article for the franchise, but there is nothing worth preserving or merging. The topic is already sufficiently covered in the target article, and this current article is nothing but massive amounts of un-sourced and primary sourced cruft.
