Unidentified flying serpent (talk - history - links - logs - delete - protect)

Per species notability policy, this unnamed species has only one known member, and is thus not notable enough to keep an article.

Keep

    Update to respond to ecks who makes a fair point in comments, the serpent is still unique and deserving of its own article. As Imp put it on Discord, if the article did not exist, we would not really have a place to properly describe the serpent Lewisr (talk) 17:02, 13 March 2022 (UTC)

Comments

The absence of evidence does not imply evidence of absence. The fact that the notability policy only covers sentient species does not mean that we can't delete the article of a nonsentient species on the same grounds—in fact, that's the one purpose of the Trash compactor: to cover areas not explicitly defined by our policies. I hope everyone voting Keep is doing so with this in mind. 1358 (Talk) 16:51, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
