This is an overly expansive deep dive into the plot of Eberron that fails WP:NOTPLOT. Eberron#World seems entirely sufficient for the context required for a general encyclopedia per WP:WAF. There do not appear to be any sources that allow the fictional setting itself to meet WP:GNG. This content is otherwise detailed like that of a fan wiki that belongs elsewhere.

  • Redirect to Eberron#World - This article is made up completely of overly in-depth WP:PLOT information that is cited only to primary sources. The general information on the plot and world of the setting is already included on the main article, though, so leaving this as a Redirect would make sense. Redirecting would also preserve this article's history, in case there is any information that someone would want to try to integrate over, though hopefully in a much more succinct manner.

  • Redirect or Merge Eberron#World - Nothing there that needs a page of it's own, maybe an editor can update Eberron#World just a little to flesh it out. And I said a little; the entire thing does not need to be merged. Timmccloud ( talk) 16:57, 24 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Merge to Eberron#World per WP:ATD. BOZ ( talk) 20:23, 24 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Merge to Eberron. The setting is definitely notable. But its individual elements mostly lack independent notability unless specifically called out. I see very few sources that make a distinction between the RPG campaign setting and the fictional planet presented as its core. Indeed, I'd say the distinction is non-existent, really. oknazevad ( talk) 05:17, 25 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Merge what little can be, most of this is unreferenced WP:FANCRUFT, sadly. Then delete, no need for a redirect. -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 07:36, 25 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Merge seems redundant with the Eberron article which is itself a campaign setting. There is some summary of in-universe details that could be preserved. Archrogue ( talk) 21:14, 27 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Merge per Oknazevad. There isn't a distinction between the RPG campaign setting and this article. Just summarize and combine the two articles and you have something encyclopedic. Jontesta ( talk) 15:52, 28 September 2020 (UTC) reply
