The only source to mention this figure is the Clementine Recognitions, as part of its clearly anti-pagan "black catalogue" of Jupiter's "adulteries". Not mentioned in any secondary source, even the most comprehensive encyclopedias such as Smith and Brill's New Pauly, so the article fails WP:GNG. There is also nothing here which isn't already at Proteus. – Michael Aurel (talk) 23:37, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

- Redirect to Proteus, per WP:ATD-R. Thaicrucia seems to appear in "A Catalogue of Virtuous Women. Myth and Mythography in Clement of Alexandria, Stromateis 4, 19,118-123" as a secondary source, but I don't have access and so cannot say if she is just mentioned there or actually discussed.

not mentioned in any secondary source
. Looking at the article in question, though, her only mention is in note 56 on p. 429, which states:Only four names out of thirty-five in the first list (Phoenissa, Thaicrucia, Cotonia, and the second Hippodamia) and one out of seven in the second (Manthea) do not follow the alphabetical arrangement

- Redirecting to Proteus is technically a merge, since it preserves the history of the stub and ensures that editors can check whether there was anything that needed to be changed in the target article. But that's perfectly appropriate, and the same should be done for this and the associated Nympheus. P Aculeius (talk) 18:15, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
