Pure and unadulterated fancruft that fails WP:GNG and WP:GAMEGUIDE. Largely FANDOM-type material only of interest to fans, and the further reading all falls under primary sources to the tabletop game. Ravenloft already has a rather large section on its fictional setting. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 10:31, 24 August 2021 (UTC)

• Merge and redirect to Ravenloft#Domains_of_Dread. Not that there is much to merge, but a bit here and there that's referenced may survive. Two references mention domain in their title, [1] and [2], the latter even gives an overview of several (but not all). PS. Just in case anyone goes 'aha, so we have a source', keep in mind that source is an overview of a possibly notable RPG sourcebook about this concept: Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft. We don't need a fancrufty CONTENTFORK and this is what we have here.--_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 12:02, 24 August 2021 (UTC)
• Merge to Ravenloft#Domains_of_Dread - Some of the more notable domains do have a bit of coverage in independent sources, but that is not the case for most of them, and there are not enough of the former to warrant a split into a separate article. The actual concept of what a domain actually is, is best covered (and already is) on the main article on the setting, and the most notable examples should simply be covered there.

• Merge and redirect to Ravenloft#Domains_of_Dread - There's definitely material to be preserved according to WP:PRESERVE and WP:AtD. Daranios (talk) 19:45, 24 August 2021 (UTC)
