List of cars named after animals

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Some of the entries in the list seem unlikely - Monterey and Buffalo are probably named after the cities, and Dino is from a person's name, according to the linked article. Because of inaccuracies such as these, and the lack of references, the page should be deleted or moved to a user page until enough information can be verified for the list to be useful. Peter E.

I am working on it to make it better. I have deleted the Dino, and will delete Buffalo. The Buick Skylark was really named after the Skylark bird.--Rockclaw1030 (talk) 17:52, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - really, now. If this was a category, it'd be trashed as WP:OC. As it is, this is WP:LISTCRUFT and, frankly, meaningless. Why not List of cars named after people? List of cars named after mountains? And so on, and so on. - The Bushranger One ping only 02:41, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete, not an encyclopedic categorization, unreferenced, legitimate concerns about misinformation and incompleteness, likely violates WP:OR. -- Kinu  t/c 02:46, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete- Listcruft that is inherently original research. Reyk  YO!  03:18, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete as per others, listcruft, original research, everything that is bad about wikipedia! --Biker Biker (talk) 20:21, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
