Squirrel-sponsored cyberterrorism,

Suspected perpetrator
  • Comment: this is not a hoax and it is supported by reliable sources

Created by Barbara (WVS) (talk). Self-nominated at 12:07, 6 June 2017 (UTC).

  • The article is currently being discussed at Articles for Deletion. If the article is merged with animal attacks, a DYK nomination of that article may be appropriate. TheDragonFire (talk) 05:28, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
The article might end up being renamed, but I don't anticipate its deletion. Animal attacks is too large of an article to be a DYK because the addition or merging of the contents of Squirrel-sponsored cyberterrorism would be insignificant in relation to its current size. I suppose we will have to see what the results are related to the deletion nominiation. I remain optimistic. Barbara (WVS)   12:07, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
