 * Keep One of 7 electricity companies in NZ according to the template, all of which should have articles. It is marked pov, which is the appropriate response. Deletion is not. CalJW 23:24, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment. Of the six other electric companies, three have neutral content; the other three have conclusory agnda-furthering one liners: i.e.,
 * "XXX is the third cleanest electricity retailer in NZ because it generates 100% of its electricity from renewables but it didn't answer questions from Greenpeace NZ,"
 * "According to Greenpeace, [YYY] is the least environmentally friendly electricity retailer in NZ because its ... parent company is planning to build a coal powered generator," and
 * "ZZZ is the second cleanest electricity retailer in NZ because it generates 100% of its electricity from renewables but hasn't ruled out burning fossil fuels in the future"
 * that should be deleted imo--FRS 23:37, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Comment. It seems to meet WP:CORP in having verifiable third party sources but is substub at the moment. Would vote to keep a decent stub on this article. Capitalistroadster
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of New Zealand-related deletions.
 * Keep: I've done the obvious and removed the POV rubbbish, replacing it with a neutral statement and a stub tag. As far as I can tell this is a keeper per WP:CORP. - Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] :: AfD? 10:44, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep Just zis Guy's rewrite. Well done to him for rewriting it. Capitalistroadster 17:19, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep as rewritten. --A D Monroe III 20:51, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
