Although big and new enough, there is only one reference. To show notability I expect at least two references. Hook is short enough. QPQ fail, as Northern grass mouse already claimed in Template:Did you know nominations/Archencyrtus. It was from a multi article hook, so perhaps another was intended. On the hook side of things, what is in the hook is not stated in the article. I don't see "largest" or "larger than everything else". Graeme Bartlett (talk) 22:20, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
- Template:Ping Two sources for a fossil (or any) species that was described less then a year ago, has never been a wiki or dyk requirement. Taxa are defaulted to notable, and the majority of life will rarely have more then a single reference to go by.
- I will do another QPQ as I missed the duplicate use.
- I reread the reference and clarified the article & hook to largest "eye diameter to head length".--Kevmin§ 00:57, 2 October 2016 (UTC)
- There would be more tertiary references around, eg https://www.antweb.org/description.do?genus=gesomyrmex&species=macrops&rank=species, http://fossilworks.org/bridge.pl?a=taxonInfo&taxon_no=326836. An article about a taxa certainly should avoid a speedy delete, but automatic notability is not assured. After all anyone can make up a taxa, even me. They are basically a human construction. But if others recognise it, then it proves that it is notable. I am not rejecting based on lack of notability. I just expect the references to prove it! On the QPQ it is possible that you have missed using one. DYKbot above failed to observe that it was a multiarticle hook, and which articles you claimed already. But it miht be easier to do a new QPQ than to work out what was not claimed already! Graeme Bartlett (talk) 01:53, 2 October 2016 (UTC)
