Proposed deletion of Beast of Buchan

Notice

The article Beast of Buchan has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Believe that this article should be deleted for the following reasons:

1 - Poorly sourced with nearly all sources being either claimed newspaper articles with no links or "cryptozoology" (a recognised pseudoscience) books.

2 - Subject is not notable enough to warrant its own page, at most it can be included under the page "British big cats" which covers this precise topic in more general terms.

While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 09:00, 16 June 2023 (UTC)
