Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lists of organisms by population
I think the article is itself wrong in saying the tables are speculative&mdash;they look remarkably well referenced to reliable sources. The figures contained in the tables are estimates and will often be speculative but the estimates are by these sources, not by . The different tables and the species in each table are not ranked by population (which might over-excite some critics), they are in classification order and alphabetical order by name. Lists do not need to be complete and this one already has sufficient scope to be fully acceptable. My view is that such data is entirely encyclopedic and indeed produces a thoroughly worthwhile article. Thank you for drawing it to my attention
