Piast Dragon : The problem here is major WP:OR ( notability is less of a problem based on my BEFORE).  The term Piast Dragon, or Polish terms listed on pl wiki, doesn't exist outside Wikipedia.  The only semi-relevant and reliable source is Histmag (popular Polish history magazine) written by a minor historian ( [44] , author is a high school history teacher) on "Dragons and Sword in Polish heraldry".  If we had an article on dragons in heraldry , I'd say we can merge the one sentence referneced to it, but since we don't, the best WP:ATD I can think of is to move this to dragons in Polish heraldry combined with 99% TNTing this to a stub-stub (if we remove all other content, with is either unreferenced, or referenced to unreliable sources, or primary ones), leaving just the Histmag ref.  The topic may be notable (here's an academic article on dragons in Polish heraldry [45] and I see other relevant literature in my Polish-language GS query [46] ) but I think this needs to be written from scratch.  To recapitulate, the name of this article (Piast Dragon) is pure OR and 99% of the content here is unreferenced, or referenced to unreliable or primary sources.

WC Quidditch ☎ ✎ 04:12, 29 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep .  Maybe we should just rename it to something like "Coat of arms of the Duchy of Czersk".  I don't believe it should be deleted.  It is still a historical symbol, and its clear its a local symbol used in Masovia to this day.  Artemis Andromeda ( talk ) 09:13, 29 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Do we even have a reliable source that the picture or anything discussed in the article is named  "Coat of arms of the Duchy of Czersk"?  Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | reply here 03:37, 30 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Hi, @ Piotrus : .  There seem to be quite a good amount of sources mentioning this creature/coat of arms.  Some even name it "Czersk Dragon".  link Artemis Andromeda ( talk ) 11:22, 31 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] A generic Google Book search?  Pass.  WP:THEREMAYBESOURCES is not good enough.  Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | reply here 13:19, 31 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I meant the books within this search, as an example to your claim that there aren't any sources.  Artemis Andromeda ( talk ) 16:21, 31 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Thank you for the quotations.  The topic of Coat of arms of the Duchy of Czersk might be notable, but I still think the current article, poorly referenced and titled, merits WP:TNT .  Aforementioned article can be written from scratch, based on reliable sources.

But right now there is nothing to WP:PRESERVE .  Shooterwalker ( talk ) 00:15, 14 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note : If this article gets deleted, someone should go to Greek Wikipedia and tell them on the talk page of their article (a note in English would be fine), since I doubt anybody from there is following this conversation.  Artemis Andromeda ( talk ) 01:26, 16 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment .  Pl wiki article got renamed since nobody except Artemis Andromeda participated in discussion there.  Well, that's their problem, from our perspective at least, I guess... -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | reply here 02:46, 16 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Basically, the name "Piast Dragon" is WP:OR , as well as suggesting that we are dealing with a "Slavic dragon" (my guess: żmij).  The latter is nonsensical because żmij was a huge reptile without legs or wings.  However, the topic itself is notable.  There are several articles about it, such as Wojciech Górczyk's "Traces of the reception of Arthurian legends in the heraldry of the Czersk Piasts and Polish chronicles" ( [47] ).  As you can see from the name, the author clearly suggests that we are dealing with an Arthurian dragon / wyvern .  The author also uses terms such as "dragon of Czersk" or "dragon of the dukes of Czersk," or alternatively "coat of arms of the dukes of Czersk," one of which would be a good name for the article.  So basically I think the article should be kept under a changed name .  As for the content of the article itself and the facts given in it, I am not sure, they need verification.

If you believe the article should be renamed, you need to suggest a specific article title or your suggestion is likely to be discounted.  Also, do not move an article in the middle of an AFD discussion.  Please add new comments below this notice.  Thanks, L iz Read!
