You know instead of outright deleting this you could actually help and fill in this article.

Merge proposal, 23 May 2024

Proposing Tsunami fish be merged into this page. It doesn't seem to be notable enough for an article; it fails WP:PAGEDECIDE and WP:10YT for sure, as it hasn't resurfaced in the press since the brief media coverage of the event in 2013.

Striped beakfishBarred knifejawFishBase uses "barred knifejaw," as does the USGS, NOAA, iNaturalist, even the Animal Crossing franchise's English localizations. Justification for @Delirium's move from "Barred knifejaw" to "Striped beakfish" back in 2006 was that the latter was used in FishBase, ITIS, and "most other references" - while ITIS still does (likely because Wikipedia does), the only ref cited in the article that uses "striped beakfish" is [3], which is dead. [1] uses the scientific name, but ⅔ of its own references use "barred knifejaw" - the remainder uses the Latin name, and not "striped beakfish." Every related species with a page on Wikipedia has their vernacular name given as "_____ knifejaw," as well as the genus and family as a whole. Google Scholar shows only one paper that uses "striped beakfish" in the title, compared to 14 which use "barred knifejaw" in the title. All of this despite Wikipedia naming this article "striped beakfish" for nearly 20 years. Maybe we're the ones who are out of touch.Kodiak Blackjack (talk) • (contribs) 22:53, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
