Arbaxoceras[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I have attempted to find any reference to this creature, but have been unable. The sole source that this creature exists appears to be a deviantArt account , but the author has, since June 31 of this year, repeatedly said that the article has not yet been published, and has deleted comments asking him for proof of such a creature, sometimes adding a hostile comment before deleting it. Regardless of the intent of the author, the fact that there is no legitimate source for it means that it cannot be part of Wikipedia.

I am also nominating the following related pages because they appear to have been pulled from the same source:

There may be other pages, but those are all one ones I can find. -- Citrakayah (talk) 15:42, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2013 December 27. —cyberbot I ^Notify_Online 15:53, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I tagged Arbaxoceras with the proper AfD tag and removed the PROD template. Safiel (talk) 16:56, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The artist's hostile commentaries may in fact be response to other people incessantly harassing him about the project.--Mr Fink (talk) 17:11, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Of course I responded with hostile commentaries: how could I not become hostile when I'm being constantly harangued by rude, impatient assholes who are too arrogant and too addicted to instant gratification to even consider asking in a polite manner, as well as being too arrogantly dense to take even the most blatant of hints?(the artist)--50.53.75.202 (talk) 22:58, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Strong delete all Either way, after having informed the artist about this situation, he wishes to see all these pages deleted immediately, as they were not made with his consent.--Mr Fink (talk) 17:26, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment After research, the artist's actual art has not been posted on Wikipedia in any way and he has no justification to demand deletion of these articles under copyright. However...... Safiel (talk) 17:39, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Strong delete all They are likely all hoaxes, based on fictional artwork. I will not request Speedy Deletion, on the off chance that one or more may actually exist. Safiel (talk) 17:39, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Strong delete all Of course they're "hoaxes": all of them are imaginary because they're for my own personal project which is still in development. The pages were not made with my consent, and I would like to see these pages gone immediately if these pages are the reason why so many rude trolls are harassing me about them on deviantart.(the artist)--50.53.75.202 (talk) 22:58, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I have marked them all as hoaxes. At the worst, they will all be gone in a week. Safiel (talk) 23:42, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
