Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of fatal snake bites in Australia
The controlling notability policy here is , not . From LISTN I quote: {{tq|"Notability guidelines also apply to the creation of stand-alone lists and tables. Notability of lists '''is based on the group'''. One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been '''discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources''', per the above guidelines; notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list. '''The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been. Because the group or set is notable, the individual items in the list do not need to be independently notable.'''"}} What I have discovered, and apparently some have yet to seek out and discover for themselves, is that snakebites have been a regularly, repeated and well-covered subject in Australian news over a significant period of time — oh, like 150 years! I have seen and read numerous articles across multiple decades on the frequency of snakebites in Australia, the frequency of snakebites in particular areas, lists of fatality victims, lists of snakebite victims that did not die, the fear of snakebite incidents, first aid treatment of snakebites, their clinical treatment, which methods worked, the snake collection efforts for venom research, venom collection methods, the advances of antivenom and treatments, etc. Apparently, snakebites are on the minds of Australians, and have been for over a century! According to several reliable sources I read, '''Australia is considered the leading expert''' on the subject of venomous snakes and the treatment of their bites. Perhaps that is ''because'' of the emphasis and coverage in news media during the last century, and efforts of Australian snakemen, herpetologists and medical researchers
