List of animals in a zoo

Hi all, I am currently working on Draft:List of animals in Chester Zoo and thought it would be of interest to members of this WikiProject. I notice there aren’t any similar list articles. Has no one made them or is there some sort of consensus not to have these articles? (Basically am I making something that is going to get deleted the moment I publish it?) Thanks.

@REDMAN 2019: The title certainly sounds WP:INDISCRIMINATE. What is the encyclopedic value? Magnolia677 (talk) 19:04, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

@Magnolia677: It seemed to me that several zoo articles suffer from MOS:SEAOFBLUE and I thought to create a draft of a list which could be linked in such articles instead of linking 15 species one after the other. Thus cleaning up the article. If its not encyclopaedic then I understand. REDMAN 2019 (talk) 20:21, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

Jersey Zoo recent events

In recent months there has been a large degree of controversy surrounding Jersey Zoo. This is certainly worthy of being covered in the article, but as I personally know some of the people involved I feel it would be inappropriate to do it myself. Here's a list of most of the news articles covering the situation - could someone edit the article so that it covers the controversy using these sources?
