Topic does not reach the threshold of significant coverage in reliable sources. WP:BEFORE only presents trivial mentions. Fails WP:NOTABILITY. Jontesta (talk) 21:58, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

- Keep: There are five pages specifically about Ev in the 1997 book Oz and Beyond: The Fantasy World of L. Frank Baum. There is also a 2009 journal article, "Philosophical Adventures in the Lands of Oz and Ev". Both of these are currently used as references in the article. Toughpigs (talk) 22:08, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

- KEEP. Refs are good enough. Desertarun (talk) 13:58, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:BARE. This AfD reminded me of the land of Ev, which I had read about as a child in several Oz books. It's more than trivia, and discussed in several good sources, although the article could use some editing down. Bearian (talk) 17:55, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
