The following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process.
It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.
"A dog well-known for its fearsome sound." Not dictionary material, is it? Citations page is chaos. And compare deletion of Talk:Clifford the Big Red Dog, another fictional dog with no evidence of generic use given. Equinox ◑ 04:26, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
- I have to agree, delete. Mglovesfun (talk) 11:53, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
- Probably not, but we've been surprised before. RFV for generic or metaphorical use such as:
- "When a divergence of MACD-Histogram fails to produce a reversal, it gives a Hound of the Baskervilles signal."

Robert Rankin, The Brentford Chainstore Massacre ".. a regular hound of the Baskervilles..." (lower case 'h' shows that it is used as a generic term). Rich Farmbrough, 18:53, 23 June 2013 (UTC).
