[edit] Dragons (Saint of Dragons)
An article about dragons in a fantasy novel does not meet notability standards. —BradV 21:56, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
- Comment: An article about Tolkein's dragons probably could meet notability standards. There is nothing inherently non-notable about topic, if scholars and critics have written about. Perhaps you meant to say "This article ... "? —Quasirandom (talk) 22:35, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
- Delete, condense, merge. Appears to belong in the article about the book. Although it is true that some notable characters within notable books by highly notable authors have warrented articles of their own, I don't think this author is on par with Tolkein. It also seems that the this article may go too far in its over-descriptiveness of elements in the book. --Pgagnon999 (talk) 07:21, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

- Delete as there are no reliable secondary sources to demonstrate notability of these fictional creatures.--Gavin Collins (talk) 15:55, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per Gavin Collins. Doctorfluffy (talk) 23:19, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
