Venatosaurus
Utter fictive, based (so far as can be told) on zero factual basis.
 * This afd nomination was orphaned. Listing now. &mdash;Crypticbot (operator) 15:36, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - A work of fiction probably by a Wikipedia user ... and classifying it right down to the species level is darn confusing considering it's fictious. It links to Skull Island, which is actually about that Monkey adventure game, which has nothing to do with this dinosaur.  --Cyde Weys talkcontribs 15:43, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment. Venatosaurus seems to be a fictional dinosaur from the new King Kong movie. Carioca 23:56, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep or merge: I've made it respectable, but I don't care whether it's merged or not. Melchoir 01:01, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Undeserving of mention on Wikipedia. --Apostrophe 04:12, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
 * KeepIt is clear enough that it is fictional.--Smerk
 * Keep, I agree with Smerk's point. Many other fictional creatures are in wikipedia. -- Crevaner 09:09, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep or merge, articles just need to be fleshed out with perhaps a capture from the film and a source link. Seinfreak37 20:45, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete this stub with no expandability. Even merging all these into a list, as is normal for minor character articles, doesn't seem reasonable considering the overwhelming triviality.—jiy (talk) 11:38, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge — Merge with Dromaeosauridae. It belongs in the section Dromaeosauridae in fiction in the article Dromaeosauridae.	— Ŭalabio‽ 15:15, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Where did the author get this information? I just came back from watching the movie and I don't recall anyone naming or classifying the creatures they saw. Perhaps I didn't hear them clearly amidst the roaring and scrambling to avoid giant feet. --SpacemanAfrica 02:36, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, it can't be expanded. Maybe put all the information on the King Kong (2005 film) article? The names weren't even used in the film.--TheDoctor10 (talk|email) 07:28, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge, it's small enough to become part of the new kong movie page, and it doesn't seem like it has any bias or significant errors.--The Omnigeek 13:21, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep I remember skimming this information recently in a book, I think it is from the new book, The World of Kong : A Natural History of Skull Island by Weta Workshop which gives more movie details about the animals of Skull Island.  Should be kept because this would be good information for anyone interested in the subject.  --Evmore 17:18, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge Put this on the King Kong (2005 film) article's besitary. All of the movie's creatures are listed there and since there isn't a great deal of info on any of them just have this as part of the bestiary along with the others and a small picture for each. That would be fine and wouldn't waste any space. --Predator 02:38, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Factually accurate. --Oldak Quill 10:23, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete this childish, crufty garbage. If kept, at least merge it with the film. u p p l a n d 10:33, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
