The result was delete – no reliable sources given, and we can't visit the article's creator to look at his dog. Fewer than 20 online references of any kind refer to this breed, unlike other mixed breeds of dogs. - KrakatoaKatie 09:14, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Pyrapoo
Page deleted via prod, restored automatically after request at DRV. Initial feedback at DRV was that there may be no reliable sources for this. Is it real, or is it a hoax? If real, is it notable and encyclopedia worthy. You decide. GRBerry 02:41, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
- Delete The issue is not that the breed is a hoax, but that there are no reliable, published sources which give significant coverage to the topic and can be used to verify both facts and notability. VanTucky Talk 02:44, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
- Merge any verifiable information to poodle hybrid. humblefool® 02:50, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
- Have added several links to external sources in the "see also" section —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jjnero (talk • contribs) 14:09, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, none of the links you added are to reliable sources according to Wikipedia guidelines. Answers.com is not acceptable. VanTucky Talk 23:11, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
- Agreed. Answers.com is a Wikipedia mirror, showing a copy of our articles. The others are also not reliable sources. GRBerry 23:12, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
- Added additional links to external sources —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jjnero (talk • contribs) 17:06, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
- We need reliable sources. Neither of the two new is. One is not a reliable source, as it is user generated content (yahoo answers). The second was yet another Wikipedia mirror, so has been removed also. GRBerry 18:23, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
- Well there are obviously no sources that are acceptably reliable per your definition. I don't know how else to prove that a pyrapoo is an actual dog with the characteristics that I have described in the article. If you want to come see my dog you can. If this is the criterion that is going to be applied to hybrid dog breeds, then there are numerous other entries that should be deleted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jjnero (talk • contribs) 23:20, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
- Delete can't find a verifiable source. Cheers, :) Dlohcierekim 03:17, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
