This article coopted a redirect to the lizard genus Tupinambis and was deleted out-of-process by restoring the redirect over it. My reading of the sources is that this may be sufficiently notable, so I'm putting it through the process for confirmation one way or the other. Consider this a procedural nomination for now; I may add a !vote later. Mangoe (talk) 16:30, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

IMHO, there are two issues here. One is whether this toy company is notable enough for its own page. Another is where it goes. If the toy company is not considered notable, the page should be returned to its former state - redirecting users from the common name of a taxon to the scientific name of the taxon. If the toy company is considered notable, its page should be moved to "Tegu Toys" or "Tegu_(company)" or somesuch, and the current page could become a disambig page linking to the toy company and the reptile. The key point is that users searching for the reptile should be able to find the page on that reptile easily, not be directed to some minor company with no links to the much more common and valid use of the term.

I see that googling for "lizard" produces 2.5 times the hits of googling for the "toy". Mangoe (talk) 18:52, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

THIS BLOG POST might be helpful if someone wants to write this up into a better form, although it won't probably count towards GNG. Carrite (talk) 17:10, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I've gotta get ready for work now, but I suspect sourcing towards GNG may well be in Spanish. This is the company name: Manufactura Tegu S.A. de C.V. and THIS is company-published but does add more material towards verifiability if anyone gets fired up to improve this.
