Spirit of Mustafar (history - links - logs - delete - protect)

Star Wars Adventures: Ghosts of Vader's Castle 5 establishes that the Spirit of Mustafar is not a character. The exact way this is established is in the collapsable section due to spoilers, but the spoiler-free reasoning is that the voice Vaneé was speaking to was not a "Force Entity" and anything notable about it can be put on other pages.

3. This is not an entity and it doesn't exist or alluded to realistically. Just an old man going through something --Vitus Infinitus^Talk 23:03, 20 October 2021 (UTC)

6. If the term is never used, and it's really just a hallucination from lava fumes, I see no reason for the article to stay. MasterFred(talk) 00:48, 22 October 2021 (UTC)

Comments

• Has it ever been referred to as "spirit of Mustafar"? If so, a redirect should be made. Also, there's so much info on the page already that it's worth moving them to the relevant article(s) first before initiating a TC for deletion. OOM 224 21:20, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
  • And if the info here does get repurposed for another article, the page here should be kept as a redirect to preserve the contribution history. OOM 224 21:22, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
    • I don't see anything that mentions a "Spirit of Mustafar" --Vitus Infinitus^Talk 21:35, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
    • The name "Spirit of Mustafar" is never used, and I've added the information from the article to other relevant pages based on what was revealed in Ghosts of Vader's Castle 5. I've also archived the page here just in case. Ramsay Sanders (talk) 23:49, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
      • Good. However, when I said "contribution history," I meant the page's edit history showing all the contributors and their respective edits. Granted, I have only skimmed through the page, but it seems to be pretty detailed, so if content there has been used for other articles, it's best to preserve the edit history by keeping this article as a redirect. OOM 224 21:00, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
        • Why would we need to keep the history if all of the information is properly merged? VergenceScatter (talk) 21:15, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
          • Attribution. So that there's a record of who contributed what. OOM 224 21:17, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
            • Is there a precedent for that? If we keep it, where should it redirect? Given that this "Spirit of Mustafar" isn't real and is never mentioned in the miniseries. DarthRuiz30 (talk) 09:22, 30 October 2021 (UTC)
        • I also put the page history on archive.org here, but I don't think the page should be a redirect. The name "Spirit of Mustafar" is never used, so I find it unlikely that anyone would search that up. The page was created based on premature assumptions on a story that hadn't completed yet, so redirecting it to the actual subject of the comic seems unnecessary.
