[edit] Enzo (gorilla)

I didn't want to go with a {{db-bio}} here (note also that's normally reserved for people), but Enzo is not yet notable enough to have an article. -- tariqabjotu (joturner) 01:55, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Actually I did see db-bio used once when someone created an article about their cocker spaniel, but this one has an assertion of notability. Not enough of one, however. Many animals are born in zoos and become popular local attractions. Fan-1967 02:13, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

• Actually, I was just joking a bit as the template doesn't mention animals, but rather people specifically. -- tariqabjotu (joturner) 02:15, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

• Yeah, the admin was stretching a bit on that one, but realistically it was a WP:SNOW situation anyway. Fan-1967 02:17, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete because I couldn't find any sources on Enzo. Let's face it, we really don't know much about him, and I don't buy that an endangered animal born in captivity necessarily needs to meet much of a threshold of notability. We have a pretty good article on Tai Shan (panda). Mangojuice^talk 02:39, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per Fan-1967. — pd_THOR ^{| =/\= | 16:49, 26 July 2006 (UTC)}
• Keep I cant find any English language sources but there is plenty in Swedish. Enzo isnt just a "local" attraction but somewhat of a national celebrity. Kålmorden is the biggest zoo in Sweden and Enzo's birth had major media coverage.svennex
