Recommend Closing discussion since this is about a recently deceased individual for multiple reasons; among them
WP:INSPECTOR and
WP:BIOSPECIAL. I further object to the nominator's inappropriate cracking of a joke at the expense of a recently deceased dog.

Merge to
Red Dead Redemption 2 and restore redirect per others. The sarcasm in the nomination was probably poor taste, especially if the dog's owners end up reading this discussion, but nevertheless, simply creating an obituary is not a valid reason to have a Wikipedia article, and can lead to significant awkwardness when that runs up against actual policy. The article creator is clearly significantly emotionally invested in this circumstance but that alone cannot cause the rules to be bended, and this is a situation where
WP:SUSTAINED applies.

Please be aware an uninvolved closer must close the AfD, which should happen eventually. However, the involved page creator is not permitted to do these things and we are not yet at the
WP:SNOW stage of things in my estimation, so saying it should be closed due to that is premature. Possibly in a day or two it will be, but that is up to the closer, who again must be uninvolved, to decide.

Request for closure again, since I have again been denigrated and scolded and again been accused of sockpuppetry off-wiki on the discord (which I have now left). This is a clear case of
WP:SNOW, attempts to fix the issue met with bad faith attacks...I don't even know what to say at this point.
