Ferox

This page is not a valid disambiguation page because the entries are all WP:Partial title matches: they are not articles that might otherwise be called "Ferox". At best it is an incomplete list of the 89 articles with "ferox" in the title. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 12:50, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete disambigs are not search results. Also a WP:NOTDIC violation. Dronebogus (talk) 12:52, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep but Remove most of the entries not related to fishes. I researched a little and Salmo ferox is often just referred to as "Ferox".

 * Comment, is there any value/precedent for keeping the plant/animal part of this as a SIA? MB 18:15, 13 November 2022 (UTC)
 * , I don't think there is any value to this; readers would be better served by search results than a (likely incomplete) SIA. I favor deletion of any page that only lists species sharing an epithet. There is no precedent for keeping that sort of content in any recent discussions. I believe some titles of this type have been deleted, but I can't remember any specific examples. At one point, I was unilaterally redirecting some of these to Wiktionary. Some titles have been redirected to List of Latin and Greek words commonly used in systematic names (which already has an entry for "ferox" with a link to Wiktionary) Relevant previous discussions: Articles for deletion/Digitata (2012), Articles for deletion/Tinctoria (2015), and especially Articles for deletion/Tristis (2nd nomination) (2020) (the primary discussion about creating this type of content in the first place took place at Talk:Tristis in 2011). There are other pages of this type in Category:Taxonomy disambiguation pages (and there are likely many more that aren't categorized); I'd be inclined to delete a large number of the pages in the category if brought to AfD.

 * Delete all entries are partial title matches. Plantdrew (talk) 17:31, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete search results are sufficient here rather than a disambiguation page, because there are no actual title conflicts with just "ferox". Steven Walling &bull; talk  18:07, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
