Despite being a D&D original creature, lacks significant coverage in reliable sources and fails WP:GNG. All mentions of the creature are relatively minor or relegated to listicles. Sources are WP:PRIMARY otherwise. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 14:23, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - Not notable and per WP:GAMEGUIDE. Wikipedia is not the monster manual. -- Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 22:07, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Fails NFICTION/GNG. FANCRUFT. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:02, 28 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment, "hey! leave these iconic/unique d&d monsters alone (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shambling mound and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gelatinous cube)!" "coola there are no independent significant sources", "but, but .... surely the School of Inconsequential Studies has covered it?" Coolabahapple (talk) 06:45, 28 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, the article fails WP:GNG, as the two secondary sources given are nothing more than passing mentions. Devonian Wombat (talk) 06:02, 29 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge and redirect to e.g. List of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd edition monsters: The article does have secondary sources. Merging them can improve another article. What's the benefit of complete deletion? Daranios (talk) 21:50, 29 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

′*Delete - The non-primary sources only appear to either be trivial mentions or game-guides. While searches bring up a number of mentions of the creature, none of the results are actual coverage that could be used to support any kind of encyclopedic content.

• Delete per WP:NOTGUIDE. KartikeyaS (talk) 08:16, 6 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
