Contiki Tours
Reads like an advertisement and doesn't seem like a notable company anyways. CrypticBacon 06:01, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Nomination withdrawn I guess I didn't realize how large and well-known this company actually is. Withdrawing nomination. --CrypticBacon 03:59, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep but needs a clean up. Even though it is not clear from the article Contiki Tours are quite well know in Australia, and would seem to hold a large section of the overseas "youth" package tour market from Australia (can't find good verifiable source where this is stated though).  As well as running/associated with two resorts in Greece and Bali under the banner of Contiki Resorts.-- blue  520  07:14, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep and cleanup. Well-known company in Australasia. A search of an Australian New Zealand newspaper database gets 52 results so meets WP:CORP. Longstanding, verifiable and notable company. Capitalistroadster 07:20, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of New Zealand-related deletions.   -- Capitalistroadster 07:24, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Notable within New Zealand. Also has had a neologism based on it (tiki tour). --Midnighttonight 07:29, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. It is an important company. I have tried to clean up the article a bit. --Bduke 07:45, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep and clean up, important for New Zealand. --MaNeMeBasat 09:52, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Very notable company in the Oceania region. Needs a cleanup of sorts but definitely of some importance.--Cini 11:05, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Has been cleaned up enough to stay (by Bduke), but would benefit from more work. A notable company which deserves a better article. Colon el  Tom 00:27, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep Definitely notable in Australasia and deserving of a decent article. I am going to nominate it for New Zealand Collaboration of the Fortnight as it would benefit from some work. PageantUpdater 03:31, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Important company throughout South Pacific region. Grutness...wha?  06:43, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Notable enough I think. --Limegreen 08:34, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. But needs work. There was a company in NZ for many years called Tiki Tours.The NZ saying "Tiki tour" more likely came from that. Maybe. Moriori 09:34, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment. I was also unconvinced about tiki tour coming from Contiki, having heard of Tiki Tours ... and had checked my NZOD (which mentioned its source as an unspecified tour company), so was planning to have a look at Orsman when I get the chance. --Limegreen 01:33, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep contiki tours are well known in Australia --Astrokey44 15:48, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. This company has operated in Canada for decades. I had no idea they were a Kiwi company 'til I saw this article. Fluit 01:13, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
