I've put the deleted content into your sandbox at User:JeanPaulLandry/sandbox for you to work on. See my reply at my talkpage, but it needs to be clearly stated as a local tall tale. Please remember not to directly copy from the Manley book, and to avoid discussions of peoples' ancestry.. Acroterion (talk) 03:32, 5 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

I've declined the speedy deeltion nomination: after all, I put it there for you to work on. It still needs to be discussed as a local myth in encyclopedic language. See these examples of more appropriately written articles: bigfoot for one cryptid, or Jersey Devil for a more mythical local creature. Acroterion (talk) 03:55, 5 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
