Giant pipi[edit]

Hoax article. Was nominated for speedy deletion but nomination challenged. Article concerns a giant clam, whose maximum length, according to the article, can be 60 metres. This beast goes by the name of Maximus Plebidonax deltoides. There is a Plebidonax deltoides to be sure, and it is referred to as a pipi, but the gigantic version in this article has no references or sources to verify its existence, despite one of its characteristics being "... killers of fishermen for trophies." The one reference given links to the Encyclopedia Britannica. online edition, but there's no mention of the clam there. No other sources found FlowerpotmaN·(t) 15:31, 9 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The first three paragraphs of the article were copied directly from Plebidonax deltoides with all the size adjectives changed to imply monstrousness. Someone was having fun. Rklear (talk) 15:43, 9 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
