I added a few tags to this article, including {{disputed}}. Other than what's provided in this article, I can't find any reliable sources that use the term "dolphin" to describe a weapon of this variety. Additionally, the references used here are... suspect (first one is a personal essay, the second and fourth are just mentions, and the third doesn't use the word "dolphin").

I would like to add that first reference is only a self-published personal essay supporting an unconventional theory, i.e. is probably not really fully reliable, and the use of "dolphin" for an "anchor weapon" as mentioned in the Wiktionary for δελφίς apparently is based only on the use of the term in this page.
