This is one of a number of pages about proto-indo-european reconstructed deities. A few of these are genuinely independently notable, such as *Dyēus, but mostly they are highly speculative. This one in particular is very speculative, and the page itself quotes the best authority on this as "there is really no evidence for a specific river goddess". The encyclopaedic information on this page can all be found at Proto-Indo-European mythology and there is nothing that can be spun out from that page that does not leap into the grounds of speculation, WP:OR and WP:SYNTH. Although I don't oppose a redirect, I don't really think anyone is going to be typing *Deh₂nu into search (and even if they did, they would find that page), so delete is probably better.
