Mahalo Ukuleles

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Lacking in reliable coverage. Coverage seems to consist almost if not entirely of incidental mentions and unreliable sources. Seems to fail wp:gng and wp:org. Chris the Paleontologist (talk &#124; contribs) 22:07, 27 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Weak keep while I cannot put my finger on a source I have heard of these.  Which makes me think they have some use. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bandn (talk • contribs) 23:08, 27 December 2011 (UTC)

 * comment i confess i am not sufficiently motivated to craft crafty google search strings in this case, but note the coverage in Alistair Wood's Ukulele for Dummies which strongly suggests notability. it says, among other things, that "almost every ukulele player in the UK has had a Mahalo ukulele pass through his or her hands at some point". 86.44.31.213 (talk) 15:56, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment - While I don't think that book is sufficient to establish notability by itself, it could be a big help for the article if additional sources are found. I should have been able to find that myself. Chris the Paleontologist  (talk &#124; contribs) 16:21, 28 December 2011 (UTC)


 * comment I looked for other sources and couldn't find any thing except Alistair Wood's Ukulele for Dummies--MLKLewis (talk) 23:08, 28 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete - I can find no significant coverage about this brand of ukulele. The reference to the Mahalo brand in Ukes for Dummies, and in other websites that I can find indicate that that this is a common ukulele because it is cheap.  However, nobody appears to have really taken note of this particular brand with any sort of significant coverage, and so I don't see that notability is met.  -- Whpq (talk) 15:28, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
