Apparent (but not blatantly apparent) hoax. None of the references are relevant for this particular "species". —Wasell(T) 18:37, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - No relevant refs, no relevant search results, probable hoax. jonkerz ♠talk 19:45, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete The red lasers affecting "neutron flow polarity" in the Diet section is patent nonsense and has a bogus reference. In fact most of the references are bogus in that they don't verify asserted statements. A search for the species and indeed the genus yielded no non-Wikipedia hits. Nonsense statements, bogus references and a total lack of verifiability all point to this as a likely hoax. --Mark viking (talk) 21:12, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete species and genus - no refs external to Wikipedia, File:Picrotus thoracicus.jpg is misrepresented as being a member of this fictional genus, sources given just give the illusion of referencing. Only "images" are sketches, and it appears we may have a number of sockpuppets involved. Chris857 (talk) 23:16, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete No relevant references, apparent hoax, removal of Afd tag today is suspicious. Donner60 (talk) 23:22, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Another apparent hoax articles has now appeared by one of the same users. This is Dinocaeruleus. Although the article also pulls in Dinocaridida as a supposed species, that article appears to be legitimate although most recent edits may need to be rechecked. Donner60 (talk) 23:35, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Two more just created by same user: Dinocaeruleus KAwaii and Dinocaeruleus Elliot. Donner60 (talk) 23:56, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment, using Special:Prefix, we have in total: Dinocaeruleus , D. KAwaii, D. Pectus, D. vosmateramatlardo, D. Elliot, D. Raxacoricofallapatorius, and D. smithii. P.S. Oh God, it's getting bigger while I type... Chris857 (talk) 00:06, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Also D. Lepus, D. Stuprant, D. Chiliconcarne, D. Genitalibus, and D. Dalekanium. Chris857 (talk) 00:09, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
