Amefurashi

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Long-term uncited. I am not sure this creature even exists, as a google search seems biased toward an unrelated work with a similar name. Mintrick (talk) 17:14, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Doesn't have enough info to really identify the subject. Seems fictional but doesn't state such. Unsourced. Jujutacular talkcontribs 17:25, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - I'm not sure whether this is a hoax or a confused description of creatures in some computer game, but there are no sources and I find none, so per WP:V it should go. JohnCD (talk) 18:14, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment With seven versions and "hept" I'd bet this has nothing to do with traditional Japanese folklore. Jujutacular and JohnCD were probably right in suspecting it's a character in some fictional work such as a manga, anime or video game. Unless it's a significant character or, against odds, genuine folklore, delete. Fg2 (talk) 10:46, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete, as it is impossible to identify the veracity of the article. --DAJF (talk) 11:02, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree, that "hept" + "ggg" looks not at all like attributes of traditional lore. I'm not finding anything to clarify the situation, so unless someone has Japanese material to explicate and verify, delete. —Quasirandom (talk) 14:09, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as hoax. Amefurashi means Aplysiomorpha in Japanese. There's no mention about any legendary creature in the ja:アメフラシ article. Oda Mari (talk) 14:19, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
