Needs Help: Morally Ambiguous Ducktorate

The entries on this page themselves pretty well demonstrate that there's no particular pattern to portrayal of ducks in fiction, if one couldn't already infer that. Wise owls and sly foxes are tropes that go way back, but "ducks are morally ambiguous" seem to be no more than kind of an attempt at post-hoc justifying the existence of another "this animal exists" page.

I agree with the general sentiment that we don't need this.

Rhymes with "Protracted."

Cut. I don't see any trope here.

Same. Voted cut as well.

Seems the consensus for cut is rather strong, so I started on clearing out a couple wicks.

There's a sizable amount of inbounds, though.

Dewick and cutlist, that is, unless someone has a good redirect target/thinks of adding a disambiguation.

I suppose it can work as a redirect to Feathered Fiend. After all, it has 500+ inbounds, that you guys probably want to keep.

EDIT: Anyway, I've dewicked the whole thing, save for an archive page, and cutlisted the subpages. I think we are done.

Redirected the page to keep the inbounds. Locking.
