Does not pass GNG or SIGCOV. Article discusses two minor and mostly unrelated one off characters, and cites no sources, and it doesn't seem like there are sufficient sources to establish either GNG or SIGCOV. Pokelego999 (talk) 14:33, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - The article is completely unsourced (and that entire last paragraph is pure WP:OR), and searches on my part have turned up no sources that would indicate that the portrayal of werewolves in the Doctor Who franchise is a notable topic at all. The complete lack of sources and utter non-notability of the topic would also mean that merging to an article like List of werewolves or Werewolf fiction would also be entirely inappropriate.

Delete WP:SYNTH, was it ever made clear “werewolf” was a distinct species or just a trope that was used a few times because Dr. Who will seemingly inevitably use every trope ever at some point? Dronebogus (talk) 22:22, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy delete It's hard to believe this article exists at all, let alone has remained on Wikipedia for so long. It is entirely predicated on synthesis, and needs to be deleted ASAP. Thanks for bringing attention to it. U-Mos (talk) 18:01, 30 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Heavy WP:SYNTH - pure WP:ALLPLOT article that fails WP:GNG. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 06:32, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
