- Comment – If not independently notable, this could be merged to Tick, which presently does not mention the topic. North America1000 23:57, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
- Merge to Tick - per User:Northamerica1000 Ormr2014 | Talk — Preceding undated comment added 00:10, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
- Keep The American Entomologist source is reliable and in-depth, but may be too closely associated with the collection to provide notability. The Augusta Chronicle source, This Seattle Times article, and this Smithsonian Science piece, however, are independent and I think enough for WP:GNG. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:46, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
- Keep Major international resource and very highly notable. There should be a great number of references in entomological sources. DGG ( talk ) 16:23, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
- Keep an esoteric subject, but as a unique scholarly collection we should have an article about it. SmartSE (talk) 17:48, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
- Keep Per DGG. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 22:49, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
- Request withdrawn Let's not waste any more time debating, per WP:SNOW, I'm withdrawing nomination/it's being kept. Joseph2302 (talk) 22:54, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
