This does not establish notability independent of the Bartimaeus Sequence through the inclusion of real world information from reliable, third party sources. Most of the information is made up of overly in-depth plot details better suited to Wikia. There is no current assertion for future improvement of the article, so extended coverage is unnecessary.

Keep, but merge - though I agree with the nominators concerns about real world information and third party sources. However, at least some of this information should be documented as part of Bartimaeus Sequence because it is fundamental contextual information for understanding the world in which the books are set, Sadads (talk) 03:54, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as non-notable. It could also be merged into Bartimaeus Sequence, but I think anything merged would probably just get cut out as unsourced original research. Background information, glossaries, and other in-universe writing belongs on Wikia, where they don't care about notability or verifiability.

Merge/redirect to Bartimaeus Sequence, I couldn't find any information on this as a stand-alone topic. --Cerebellum (talk) 23:47, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:GNG. I left a message at the Bartimaeus Wikia to see if anyone wants to copy it over there. [1]-- Green Cardamom (talk) 00:51, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I'm Petera275, in charge of the Bartimaeus Wikia. I'd be more than happy to copy this over, and I thank you very much for notifying me of this page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.177.251.131 (talk) 21:17, 18 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
