I can find no evidence that any of the comparatively large rodents on this page are actually ever referred to by the phrase "rodent of unusual size", or that anything in the world is, other than the fictional creature from The Princess Bride. I would delete this page and redirect to The Princess Bride. bd2412 T 04:11, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect to The Princess Bride, with a tip of the hat to the Giant Rat of Sumatra. This phrase is indelibly linked to the movie. Even the [http://www.smithsonianmag.com/smithsonian-institution/rodents-of-unusual-size-do-exist-1-180949027/?no-ist Smithsonian magazine] thinks so. Clarityfiend (talk) 07:31, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect to The Princess Bride. This article seems to be a borderline joke when it says the expression "can also be used" to describe various species, with the protest rat being the punchline. I guess that would fall under WP:OR. Borock (talk) 15:58, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
