Shark Bites

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Lacks references, does not meet WP:GNG, and consists solely of original research. Y'know, like what it says in the article.

Article details a fruit snack produced by Betty Crocker. Shark Bites is a real product that exists and is apparently produced and sold by Betty Crocker to this day, but the only information I can find about it are online retail sites selling boxes of the stuff and a few "foods from your childhood that you can still buy" list articles from sources that I'm pretty sure aren't proper sources. The article apparently had more content that was gradually trimmed and eventually almost completely removed in 2016; the article hasn't been edited since, and the unreferenced template has been on the page since 2013.

 * redirect to Shark attack. I agree with the nominator that this snack does not seem to have sufficient notability for a standalone article, and my attempt at searching for sources didn't turn anything reasonable up. Since this is entirely unsourced and has content that is extremely dubious, e.g. It is unknown whether the White Shark is supposed to taste like one of the other flavors each time, or if it is a flavor of its own. I don't think it's suitable for merging. It is however a plausible search term for people looking for information on shark attacks. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 03:04, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Redirect to Shark attack: per IP. I'd suggest to merge if there were any sourced content, but as there is not, there isn't much to merge. IP makes a good point about this being a plausible search term for someone looking for more information on, say, what happens when a shark bites you.  Kncny11  (shoot) 20:58, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
