Canonicity of deities
Last year I did some research on the canonicity of the more obscure Greyhawk deities appearing in the Encyclopedia Greyhawkania list and/or the Living Greyhawk deity list. I'm posting it here in case it's useful (no guarantees of accuracy).

I originally researched this for the Canonfire wiki, but that site went down in March 2018 without an up-to-date backup to restore from, so all my contributions to it were lost. I'm posting this list here in case someone finds it useful.
Note that the modern thinking (D&D 3e onward) is that archomentals, archdevils and the like are not deities, but sub-divine entities.
