Prod contested by DGG. Non-notable fictional places. Articles were created by a user now identified as a sockpuppet. Matt (talk) 17:21, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Delete. If they are bad-faith edits by a sockpuppet, let's delete them. Looking at the articles themselves, I don't find any any of them are notable enough to pass our fiction guidelines. Looks like someone was assembling a list of fictional easter-European countries. (That list may be notable, but individual places on it would not be.) JRP (talk) 17:50, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
Redirect each to the fictional work they're from (assuming they're even real, of course, if not delete). Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 19:47, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
Redirect or merge which is what i suggested instead of outright deletion. I certainly agree they are not worth independent articles. DGG (talk) 01:50, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
Speedily delete per G5 (ie creation by a banned user in violation of ban) or merge to the work they're from. Telephonedennis talk 08:29, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
{{user|Telephonedennis}}, since renamed to {{user|Vilbafo534}}, is that very same user, it transpires. See Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Fila3466757. Uncle G (talk) 01:28, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Redirect. No need for an AFD. Pburka (talk) 01:03, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
Redirect - the subjects are lacking in real-world relevance or significance to justify inclusion, and certainly fail the general notability guideline. Valid search terms, though. – Toon ^(talk) 01:46, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
Redirect when it is possible to link to a series article or single work without killing links the subject might have with other works. (for example Herzoslovakia should redirect to a list of Agatha Christie works rather than one book in particular) - Mgm|^(talk) 11:03, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
