Gudrun (whale)[edit]

lacks notability, reliable 3rd party sources Rtphokie (talk) 13:11, 12 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The content is now in a section in the new article Captive orcas, with some references. Don't think there is enough for a stand-alone article. For now, this article could change to a redirect to the section. But if the section grows, it could be broken out into a separate article. Aymatth2 (talk) 17:28, 12 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral. She might be worth a mention because of the experiments she was in (redirect), but right now, there's no indication she's notable in the sense we judge it in people. She's not involved in notable incidents, wasn't on film or even widely famous. Unless notability is asserted, there definitely shouldn't be a separate article. _Mgm|^(talk) 22:39, 12 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and merge Into captive orcas, unless greater notability can be established for this whale in particular. Anaxial (talk) 18:58, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

Merge Somewhere Else and Redirect. I am noting the bold merge on Captive orcas. This made the article 61 KB long in violation of the WP:SIZE Guideline however based on my test edits of the page at my sandbox.[1] The test edits after removing the whale list from the article brought the size down to just over 19 KB. The article I would suggest the list be moved to is List of Captive orcas however the split article would be at least 41 KB long (about 8 KB above the Guideline So we may need to split into more articles).

See comment on Talk:Captive orcas. Suggest we continue merge, then discuss best way to split. Aymatth2 (talk) 13:51, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
