Black Canary (Dinah Laurel Lance): As a stand-alone article, this fails WP:GNG .  Primarily just fictional character biography and a list of media appearances.  Reception consists of "IGN rated her its 81st-greatest all-time comic book hero. She was number 26 on Comics Buyer's Guide's "100 Sexiest Women in Comics" list." which just confirms this as niche WP:FANCRUFTy character with no real-world impact.  Black Canary is probably notable (probably - the reception at that article is as bad as here), but we certainly don't need two subarticles about her comic variants.

Have you read Wikipedia:Summary style - jc37 07:02, 2 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Including WP:AVOIDSPLIT , yes.  You may want to refresh yourself on that part.  Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | reply here 08:08, 2 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] While I agree that the pages need to be merged, perhaps it would be easier to insert the content from Black Canary and rename this page?  (Yes, I'm new, and this may be a stupid question.)  Rhishisikk ( talk ) 15:46, 2 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Rhishisikk What content would you like to insert where, exactly, and how would you rename the current article?  Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | reply here 03:03, 3 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - Let this page stay.  It was split in order to keep the page from being overcrowded.  That was one of the reasons why @ Jhenderson777 : split this character off from the Black Canary page among other similar split-offs.  -- Rtkat3 ( talk ) 16:46, 5 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

The true Black Canary is Dinah Drake, a character developed in the 40's and a member of the Justice Society .  The hero was revised in the 60's by giving her powers and enrolling her into the Justice League .  But it was the same character.  Not until the 80's that this supposed daughter and idiotic storyline of hers appeared, because she was "too old" to hold the mantle.  Very ageist and sexist.  I think the two articles covering Black Canary should be merged, because there is truly only one heroine.  -- Irimia florin 11:03, 9 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge to Black Canary - I have pretty much the exact same thoughts as I wrote on the concurrent AFD for Black Canary (Dinah Drake) .  This is a clear WP:NOPAGE situation where covering the entirety of the topic of "Black Canary" in a single article just works better than splitting it out into three different articles, as it provides needed context and removes confusing navigation.  Rorshacma ( talk ) 00:13, 10 August 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect per Rorshacma as WP:REDUNDANTFORK .  There isn't WP:SIGCOV to create three separate articles about this fiction.  The sources cover this as a singular topic, not three.  (Also noting support for merge among delete and keep !votes, per WP:ATD .)
