The articles in this category have only a single published reference, called a throwaway reference. There are two criteria for throwaway reference: Length and context.

  • The source text mentioning the item in the article title is a sentence or less
  • The article around the mention is unrelated to or on another topic.

The classic example of this is Eliyoh, mentioned in the Imperial Encyclopedia (p. 29) in a discussion of the Imperial Sunburst.

The article could be developed further, either as a fan effort or in a publication. But currently the article has little information as the source reference had little information to expand on.
