Nothing in the article suggests this character is notable, my BEFORE finds little of use. No Russian interwiki. The article is unreferenced (no footnotes). Maybe it could be rewritten into an article about a series ( Sister Pleagia series) based on reviews or analysis of the series (this might be useful: [1]); sources are more likely to exist in Russian than English. If the article is not improved, however, due to failures of WP:V, WP:GNG and possible WP:OR, per WP:ATD-R I suggest this is redirected to the article about the author. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 01:40, 29 January 2024 (UTC) reply

• Keep: This article already is about the series; all three books redirect to this page. I easily found reviews for all three books. " A nun with a nose for adventure" (Los Angeles Times, Jan 2007), " Nun has sleuth skills, feminist views" (Philadelphia Inquirer, May 2008), " Eye-popping stuff" (The Independent, Nov 2009). Russian language skills are not necessary. Toughpigs ( talk) 01:57, 29 January 2024 (UTC) reply

  @ Toughpigs If the books are notable, they merit stand-alone articles, sure, but here we discuss the fictional character. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 02:58, 29 January 2024 (UTC) reply

  All of the books pages redirect to this page. This is the series page. It would be silly to delete the series page and then create stand-alone pages for each book. Toughpigs ( talk) 03:06, 29 January 2024 (UTC) reply

• Keep These are really rather well-known books, translated into several languages, and doubtless with many reviews. I simply don't believe that a properly-done "BEFORE finds little of use" (did you make the same typo you do above?). If you think the article should be renamed Sister Pelagia series, do a RM. At the very least a merger to the author should be proposed. No valid deletion rationale given, just the usual chaff-storm of non-relevant policy shortcuts.
