Buffalo Bigfoot

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

Non-notable bigfoot legend variant. Just 8 non-wiki ghits, most of which are not about this creature; zero gnews hits. Source given in article is a TV station homepage and doesn't mention creature. Prod contested with no reason given. Fabrictramp |  talk to me  15:04, 17 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep but preferable Merge Delete- I've added some more references to it. Google news hits are low, true; but I've added some notable local media covering this story. This article is a mess, but I'd say if anything, merge into primary Bigfoot article, but it may be able to stand on it's own, as I am currently working on it. Paranormal Skeptic (talk) 15:09, 17 October 2008 (UTC)  I'll work this into the primary article.  I've researched more into it, and doesn't seem enough to stand on it's own as an article.

 * Weak keep - An article based on one report of one citing of a creature is not necessary, and the quality of the article is very poor. However, as Paranormal Skeptic is willing to take ownership of the issue and proposes to merge the article if it cannot stand on its own we should give this editor a chance to work on it.

 * Delete. As hoax.  This page would be acceptable only IF all the material written with a belief in the hoax -- for instance "Learning to Adapt" and all that other gibberish speculation -- is cut out, and the page is rewritten to report on the 2006 hoax.  (A hoax page like Mel's Hole, for instance.)  Even then we're left with notability and source problems.  Let's just make it a quick death.  --Lockley (talk) 21:58, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
