Article is based solely on unverified reports of very long snakes. This is by definition a fringe point of view and is not supported by reliable sources. –dlthewave ☎ 04:04, 20 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak delete Does not appear to be well sourced, but am dubious about AFD's shortly after gutting an article.Slatersteven (talk) 15:03, 20 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete What there is in the way of reliably sourced length estimates is provided at great depth in the description section for the largest species, Green anaconda. That includes quite good coverage of speculations, too. So while this is a topic of perennial interest, we've already got it covered in suitable format. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 15:56, 20 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete Unclear why anyone thought this should be a separate article in the first place; anything worth salvaging can go to anaconda or Green_anaconda#Current_estimates_of_maximal_size. Reywas92Talk 20:01, 20 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to Green anaconda#Current estimates of maximal size. Not sure why this needs to have a separate article. Hog Farm (talk) 20:22, 20 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete Lacking fact-based reliable sources, the topic is pure-fiction. There is a good film about this but in the real everyday world no reliable evidence. Psychologist Guy (talk) 17:05, 24 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
