Hawaiian canoe

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Article is about Canoe paddling in Hawaii; probably not notable enough for an article on the topic and would most likely be hard to write about without putting any original research in the article. Aqwis 18:50, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak delete. My understanding is that it is a significant sport there and references could probably be found (according to Canoeing, Outrigger canoe racing is the state sport there). However, this article is so short as to be useless, and if such an article were ever created it would be just as easily started from scratch. Any references would include the events listed if they are notable. If anyone adds any of this stuff before the AfD closes, though, I could easily change my mind.

 * Delete. The subject of the article would seem to be the same as the subject of the article Outrigger canoe racing, so that this one is superfluous. If the specific competitions it mentions are worthy of note, they can be discussed in the latter article. Deor 22:05, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
