I'm a fan of big dragons when they are old and few and when all of that matters.

>a lot of people who want their creatures to be larger than a elephant
Funnily enough, that's the scale I'm working with in a story I'm writing.
The co-protagonis dragon is about as tall as an asian elephant or an orca, with the largest dragon alive being about twice that size (GoT tv show dragon size?), otherwise the rules of engagement change too much. A fight against something gargantuan is more like fighting a moving building than a living creature, something like that.
Which can work if you really take into consideration what that means, but that's not what I want to write about.
A flying fire breathing humpback whale is scary enough as is.
