Oppose: First, the name is not a real word. According to naming conventions the article should be called Animality studies (note the separation of words and sentence case capitalization). Second, there is no evidence that "animality studies" is generally recognized as a field separate from animal studies; indeed, it appears to represent a non-neutral point of view, and perhaps even a fringe viewpoint. Third, the subject is already treated in more depth in the Animal studies article, and is therefore an impermissible content fork. Fourth, this proposed article has almost no encyclopedic content. Fifth, this proposed article stands by itself: in has no internal links to other relevant Misplaced Pages articles. For these reasons, if this page were moved to article space in its current state, it would be an immediate candidate for deletion. —Finell (Talk) 11:25, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
