Inspired by a problem with Template_talk:Races#Messy_Template, I plan to organize a bunch seemingly duplicate pages that are not really duplicates, but should be far more interconnected than they are. Some merges and splits will be needed. It is not just about "animals".

- Stone Golem (golem)
- Vanir (titans, also some unknown creature opposite of the storm giants. Seems to presume things with bronze-colored 'titan' model are this)
- Titanic watcher/titanic keeper/keeper ("watcher" and "keeper" are labels of the guys around Ulduar, possibly other things. Needs citation. May be powerful stone watchers and/or stone keepers)
- Stone giant (all mobs with this name are the tree-colossus "wood giant". Archavon the Stone Watcher's model name. Archaedas is a "giant of stone". Fixed)
- Stone Giant (tree giant guy)
