7. Save the redlinks, scan them over for canonical creatures, and delete the page. -- Riffsyphon1024 14:43, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

Comments

Redlinks

• Afare -- deleted as fanon on June '08, deleted revisions imply that it's one of those fanon Mimbanese creatures which apparently crept onto Wikipedia from some RPG site just before we started up here.
• Dractuvian caveworm -- deleted as nonsense September '08. Possibly from Dractu, possibly a mistake for Dractuvian cave slug.
• Nimgnat -- Could a Hyperspace member please confirm that this creature is mentioned in "Precipice"? No deleted revisions.
• Slug-rat -- deleted as nonsense in December '06. Possibly in Twin Stars of Kira as a pet of a guy named Bursthed.
• Wuffa -- deleted as nonsense in August '08.

Surprisingly few. A couple of the redlinks were alternate names of creatures we already had nice sourced articles for. —Silly Dan _(talk) 12:24, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

• I just happened to read Appetite for Adventure yesterday. The Dractuvian caveworm is not the same as Dractuvian cave slug, altough they do look similiar. I put it into Gallery of requested articles. Mauser 12:51, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
  • When I get a chance I'll check Twin Stars of Kira to see if Slug-rat is canon. Doluk^{Furthermore I believe that lists must be destroyed.} 17:42, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
  • And it turns out that Slug-rat is indeed canon from pages 69-71 of Twin Stars of Kira. When I get a chance over the next couple of days I'll do up a proper article for it. Doluk^{Furthermore I believe that lists must be destroyed.} 09:51, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
