lacks notability, reliable 3rd party sources. Appears to include original research. Rtphokie (talk) 13:22, 12 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep While it lacks sources, there are multiple claims of notability in the article. Edward321 (talk) 14:40, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
 * See the new merged article Captive orcas. Maybe better as a section in this article? Aymatth2 (talk) 16:07, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

 * Merge Somewhere Else and Redirect. I am noting the bold merge on Captive orcas. This made the article 61 KB long in violation of the WP:SIZE Guideline however based on my test edits of the page at my sandbox. The test edits after removing the whale list from the article brought the size down to just over 19 KB. The article I would suggest the list be moved to is List of Captive orcas however the split article would be at least 41 KB long (about 8 KB above the Guideline So we may need to split into more articles).

 * See comment on Talk:Captive orcas. Suggest we continue merge, then discuss best way to split. Aymatth2 (talk) 13:53, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
