It's about creatures in an invented world. People can and will go to zompist.com if they want to know what a ktuvok is. Also, they will not even know they should know what a ktuvok is unless they've already been to zompist.com, in which case they probably already know what a ktuvok is.

  • Keep. There are articles for orcs and other Tolkeinesque races, as well as Star Wars sentient species. User:DarkFantasy
  • Delete. Lord of Rings and Star Wars are famous as they were seen by millions of people. Kvutok returns just 1 hit on google [1]. Andris 01:42, May 19, 2004 (UTC)
    • Maybe you should have spelled it right. Ktuvok returns 74 hits. DarkFantasy
      • Sorry for mistake. Does not change my opinion, though. 74 hits are not enough, even if we do not notice that most of those hits are about some Polish person whose e-mail is ktuvok@poczta.onet.pl. Andris 17:27, May 19, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. There is significant fiction, and insignificant fiction. Famous books and billion dollar grossing series of films are significant. This doesn't appear to be. Average Earthman 12:10, 19 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]
    • I think it makes more sense to have "insignificant" fictional things here as well. If it's significant, chances are the people looking it up have already found information about it elsewhere, while when stumbling across the word "ktuvok" on a website, they may not know where to turn for information about it.

      • According to google, zompist.com is the only website where they can stumble upon that. Andris 17:29, May 19, 2004 (UTC)
      • In which case, this should go bye-bye. - Lucky 6.9 19:38, 19 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: idiosyncratic, insignificant. Wile E. Heresiarch 00:16, 20 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]
