Article was created as a dictionary definition of a neologism, and appeared to be promotional. Part of the definition was replaced by another definition by another user, and the proposed deletion was contested by the user who created the article, but it still fails WP:DICTIONARY and is unlikely to become an encyclopedic article so should be deleted. snigbrook (talk) 22:17, 18 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- What an odd article. I agree that there isn't much chance it can be expanded...Dmz5*Edits**Talk* 00:05, 19 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - there is an article for the genus Eurygaster but none for this species, and I don't think it worth retaining the first part of this against the day when someone might write articles about the individual species; also, this article was placed with promotional intent for a non-notable organization referred to in the second part - see Amerinda Church, at AfD here.

- Delete Nonnotable neologism. Registered trademark: Whoopee. Edison (talk) 02:14, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, sources do not establish notability. "Amerinda estudios" seems to be an obscure Portuguese academic journal, but even that hasn't got enough sources about it to write an article. Tim Vickers (talk) 03:13, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Rename to Eurygaster amerinda, expand from sources like this (p. 16) and this, and presumably the existing ref "entomology.ualberta.ca" is an RS. Get rid of the TM thing. Chzz ► 04:53, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Insufficient secondary sources with which to expand the article. -Uyvsdi (talk) 17:56, 25 August 2009 (UTC)Uyvsdi[reply]
