Easily a 'useless' disambiguation page for a surname that no real world person (possibly) has. Propose that it be merged/redirect to Characters of Fate/stay night.

- Withdrawn because I clearly cannot read; this is AFD, was meant to post this on RFD.**

- Comment: RfD would not be the right venue for this discussion, as this is a set index and not a redirect. (Set indexes in turn are not disambiguation pages either, despite the nominator's statement.) The nominator may actually be referring to RM as they have started a requested move discussion, but as Characters of Fate/stay night is an extant article that the nominations propose merging or redirecting to—i.e., a move of this page is not being proposed—that isn't the right process either.

- Delete Per nominator's previous argument before they withdrew. A merge or redirect would be unhelpful due to its vague nature. Closing this discussion now would count as a withdrawal supervote and not be allowed. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 09:36, 16 June 2025 (UTC)
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- Delete per Zxcvbnm. There are only three characters listed here, none of which have their own article. One of them isn't even included at the main character list, so a redirect doesn't seem useful in this case. MidnightMayhem 04:05, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- Redirect to Characters of Fate/stay night#Illyasviel von Einzbern; Illya is a main character of several TV shows and movies; others are supporting. Easy. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:50, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
- Wait, I missed that this is a list of FSN characters, I was refering to the wider Fate universe / media franchise (ex. Illya is the main of Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya). A better target then would be List of Fate/Grand Order characters, as that game contains all of these characters, although it is incomplete and not mentioned there. In that case, really, the best outcome would be to redirect this to Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya, as the main character of that show has a surname of Einzbern (Illya); she is much more popular than the other two mentioned in the current disambig/set index, and if they all had articles, that would be the primary meaning (unless we would have an article about the fictional family). But GNG-wise, only Illya might be notable, perhaps, the other stuff is pure fancruft niche plot summary stuff. So, revising my vote, redirect to Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya. Ping @Wcquidditch@Zxcvbnm so you can consider my argument. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:56, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
- Redirect per all. Deletion is also valid, but looking for WP:ATD. This doesn't meet WP:LISTN or WP:SIGCOV. Shooterwalker (talk) 20:33, 25 June 2025 (UTC)
