Ash Puriri

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )


 * Delete. No claim of notability and as per one of the editors, the only claim is mention in one reliable source. Mention is one source might make it WP:TOOSOON and not worthy of an article.  Arun Kumar SINGH (Talk)  13:27, 2 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Comment: Article fails WP:MUSBIO & WP:COMPOSER. Arun Kumar SINGH (Talk)  14:55, 2 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Suggest alternative Since this article was just created today, rather than rushing into an AfD, the "newpage" template should have been added to the top. Then, after a day or so, contact the articles creator and see what his plans are. At this point, AfD seems premature.Juneau Mike (talk) 16:25, 2 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment That would generally be a fair enough suggestion, Juneau Mike, but won't get us anywhere in this case. Have a look at the article creator's track record (e.g. his talk page). I suggest that it's a new account of an editor previously known as Bettifm - totally identical editing pattern (well-intentioned but generally creates one-sentence stubs with more than half of them non-notable, can't spell, very poor grasp of grammar). Don't hold your breath.  Schwede 66  18:33, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Weak keep While the article is clearly inadequate, media coverage for Ash Puriri seems to span both Australian and New Zealand sources, with an emphasis on NZ Maori sites. Needs more research before I would be prepared to write it off. NealeFamily (talk) 08:25, 4 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete for now and draft/userfy as a compromise - My searches found nothing particularly outstanding with the best results here and here. He may be somewhat well known locally but there's nothing particularly convincing for an article yet. SwisterTwister   talk  05:10, 6 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete - Insufficient coverage reliable sources to establish notability. -- Whpq (talk) 10:27, 6 August 2015 (UTC)
