Contested deletion
[edit]This page should not be speedily deleted. It may have been created by a banned or blocked editor, but I have since edited it. The genus and species it covers are in reliable sources. Peter coxhead (talk) 17:11, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

- @Usernamekiran: so you are going to delete and recreate the 8,619 categories created by the banned user Look2See1? And this was only under one of that individual's apparent aliases. It's not a sensible approach. Peter coxhead (talk) 21:21, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Peter coxhead: well thats a lot. Sometimes, it makes sense not to delete and recreate stuff, but we should do the easy-peasey ones like this article. —usernamekiran (talk) 01:30, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Usernamekiran: well, we must agree to differ. I'm not watching this page any more, so I leave it to you. Peter coxhead (talk) 05:59, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
