Subject appears to be either a hoax or a misidentification of the organism Stanley011 (talk) 01:35, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete I think it is a hoax. May fail WP:NOTE.-- RyRy5  Talk to RyRy   02:02, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Yeah, you're right. Definitely a hoax, can't find it anwhere else. THE KC (talk) 02:09, 10 April 2008 (UTC).
 * Delete Doesn't appear to be a hoax, a Dani Gecko is a rare Brazilian Gecko perhaps called 'Gekko scabridus'. Still can't find any notability for it. Hence delete. SunCreator (talk) 02:17, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete. Yes, all species are automatically notable, but I can't find anything to verify of the existence of this species, and a quick search doesn't turn anything up for Gekko dani or Dani gecko. This is a reference for 'Gekko scabridus' which is found in China rather than Brazil. See Gekko verreauxi for a stub article about another species of gekko. Editors wanting to create articles about the less common species of gekko could use the Gekko verreauxi stub article as a model for articles on other species. --Eastmain (talk) 03:43, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete Thought it was a hoax at first; it might not be, but a google search turns up very little. No prejudice against recreation if the facts can be properly verified. PeterSymonds |  talk  11:24, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, appears to be a hoax. No problem with recreation if the existence of this species can be verified.  Lankiveil (speak to me) 11:39, 10 April 2008 (UTC).
 * Delete Appears to be misinformation. Probably not a hoax, but it can be re-created if verified. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 16:48, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
