I was going to redirect this to Uplift_Universe as an ATD as a BEFORE shows no indication the characters are independently notable, however they're not mentioned there so it wouldn't help the reader and there's nothing independently sourced to support a merge. A list of characters doesn't appear to be a viable option per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Uplift Universe species Star Mississippi 22:55, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

- Comment looking at potential incoming links [1], it may be possible to create a disambiguation page for Tandu and mention that the fictional species there. Vexations (talk) 15:22, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - As written it is entirely in-universe and I can find no reliable sources discussing this. The references in the article aren't reliable sources being a geocities site and a mailing list inaccessible as the domain has expired. As for a disambiguation page, those are not content pages and are just for navigation. If there is no article on Tandu, or a related article to link to, then they don't belong on the disambiguation page. -- Whpq (talk) 01:14, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, ✗plicit 00:35, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
- Merge and redirect to Uplift Universe#Other species. They're one of the major villains (from a human viewpoint anyway). Clarityfiend (talk) 03:38, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
- there's unfortunately nothing sourced to merge. Or non issue for fictional characters? Star Mississippi 15:22, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. Consists only of plot summary and therefore fails WP:NOTPLOT, as does Uplift Universe, which I'll nominate for AfD. Sandstein 09:43, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
