Too high. It’s the use / mention distinction. Mention of (existence of) basilisks is permitted, use (detailed description) is prohibited.

I get the impression that mentioning it in prominent places also gets deleted.
Quite a few of the recently observed mass deletions have started from what was a mention.
I missed those (as in ‘didn’t notice’, not as in ‘was nostalgic about’).
