Declined PROD. This registry is linked from a lot of hedgehog websites, but I couldn't find significant coverage in reliable sources. The references in the article do not establish notability. Moswento talky 08:00, 16 June 2014 (UTC)

  • Delete. Non notable topic per nom. Passing mentions in a book and in the acknowledgements to a scientific paper are not significant coverage and the other references ... well ... they're "other".  Philg88 talk 17:11, 16 June 2014 (UTC)

  • Keep. I think the references are sufficient. This is like a Cat registry, but for hedgehogs. Eastmain (talkcontribs) 17:03, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
  • I understand the concept of a "hedgehog registry", I just fail to see any real discussion of it in sources. I definitely don't agree that the current references are sufficient. They amount to 7 words on the Improbable Research website, 10 words in a book about hedgehogs, a 14-word acknowledgement in a single academic journal paper, and a post on an internet forum. Nowhere near WP:GNG. Moswento talky 07:45, 19 June 2014 (UTC)


:Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
