Parapodia
This is a real topic, but IMHO it is too specific a topic (the organs of a specific group of annelids) to be worthy of an article. I do not foresee it growing enough to legitimate itself. &rarr;I&ntilde;g&#333;lemo&larr; ( talk 23:02, 2005 Jan 21 (UTC)

 * Keep even if it doesn't deserve an article, it should be given more than seven minutes to grow into something worth merging. Kappa 00:15, 22 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep this valid bio-stub. Allow for organic growth and expansion. GRider\talk 00:40, 22 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * I just made that mistake on Chaetae (which had been CSDed within one minute, not VfDed within seven). It's  &#9786; Uncle G 01:10, 2005 Jan 22 (UTC)
 * Keep and Move to parapodium. My Key Facts Dictionary of Biology is a paper encyclopaedia and has such has had to squeeze everything into a mere 282 pages.  If its editors considered parapodium worth expending an entire article of its own on, then Wikipedia editors almost certainly should.  Are you seriously trying to suggest that a fictional planet that is mentioned in passing as the birthplace of a fictional character in a science fiction book is worthy of its own article here whilst parapodia are not?

 * Keep, in need of expansion. Megan1967 01:16, 22 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Valid topic. If it hasn't grown in six months, we can merge-and-delete it then. Dpbsmith (talk) 18:39, 22 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep We should keep all scientific topics by default, as long as they are proved (or widely accepted) to be true. Andrew Lenahan - St ar bli nd 13:29, Jan 23, 2005 (UTC)
