  • Keep You know shark stub it's not actually apporiate for dogfish, did you take a look at population? There are about 4 article where they are stub — Preceding unsigned comment added by Builder8360 (talkcontribs) 13:23, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Aha, emergency additions after the nomination. but still they are all sharks. The Banner talk 14:26, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete- As far as I can tell, there are only a few species of dog fish extant. Further, there is no reason to have oddly specific stub cats. It would fit under shark (per nom) or, I suppose fish, or aquatic species or something of that sort. This template does not 'help' WP any more than alternatives, though I know it was made in good faith and I wouldn't say it's 'low quality'. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ 02:26, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • I called it low quality because this short template links to a disambiguation page and to a non-existing category. The Banner talk 09:31, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Was not proposed at WP:WSS/P; and even if it had been, it would not have been approved since there are fewer than 60 qualifying articles. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 20:04, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
