Thunderbird (cryptozoology)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Although sightings of initially-unidentified large birds are well documented, grouping them under the "thunderbird" moniker and proposing an unknown species is entirely unsupported by reliable sources and represents a fringe POV. The topic has not received sufficient RS coverage to meet GNG or write a balanced article. –dlthewave ☎ 03:41, 19 December 2019 (UTC)

 * Merge or Redirect to Thunderbird (mythology), per WP:PRESERVE. This article is really nothing more than a fork of the article related to the mythological animal, being one concerned with supposed sightings of it. Please, please let's not get into another argument about Cryptids again.... FOARP (talk) 08:09, 19 December 2019 (UTC)


 * Delete or redirect to Thunderbird (mythology), either works for me. The problem here is a lack of reliable sources for a segment of the subculture's fixation on this particular topic. I'm sure a few exist, but the notability of this particular fringe group's interest in an entity from folklore is only notable for a small section at most at Thunderbird (mythology). &#58;bloodofox: (talk) 17:22, 19 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Merge to Thunderbird (mythology). The Tombstone Epitaph episode is well known and reasonably well documented; that's worth a mention or a short subsection. Nothing much else to go on for a standalone article. -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 19:53, 19 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Thunderbird (mythology) Its a thing, and I can see this being a search.Slatersteven (talk) 14:59, 20 December 2019 (UTC)


 * Delete due to lack of reliable sources. -Roxy, the PROD. . wooF 16:18, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
