The result was   speedy keep. There are many number of reasons why this should be closed, not the least of which are the snowball clause and Ignore All Rules. has suggested that give his blessing before this closure, however that is not necessary. After all CAC would not have written this article if he have wanted it deleted. Should someone wish to provide a good faith reason why this should be deleted, and nominate it again, so be it. kelapstick(bainuu) 18:45, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

Native Hawaiian cuisine

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Is this a legitimate article subject? I was unable to move the article back so a history merge from Draft:Native Hawaiian cuisine is needed. Candleabracadabra (talk) 17:03, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep No reason for deletion has been given by the nominator. I visited Hawaii most recently six months ago, and since I am interested in cuisine, discovered many books on Hawaiian cuisine. Of couse, the cuisine before the arrival of Captain Cook's expedition is a highly notable topic, and the article is well-referenced.  Cullen 328  Let's discuss it  17:12, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I nominated the article because there is a dispute over whether it should exist as an independent article from Cuisine of Hawaii and this seems like an appropriate venue to get community input on how best to handle the subject. Candleabracadabra (talk) 17:14, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I recommend keeping this article, but cutting way back on the material about post-contact food, which is covered better and more appropriately at Cuisine of Hawaii, which is of course a fusion cuisine. I believe that these are two related but discrete topics, each worthy of an article.  Cullen 328  Let's discuss it  17:22, 18 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep per Cullen. Hafspajen (talk) 17:22, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment the redirect should have been deleted before moving the article out of draft space,., with as many edits as you have, you should know by now that you can't just copy/paste, even within Wikipedia, without providing attribution. Now a history merge (that could have easily been avoided) has to be done. I am happy to do it now, unless there is an objection of it being completed mid-AfD. --kelapstick(bainuu) 17:31, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry that I don't yet know all the procedural intricacies of Wikipedia. I blanked the page and you are welcome to delete it and move the article back from draft space. No history merge needed. I tried to move the article back to mainspace for the AfD but my powers are not great enough to achieve such endeavors on my own. I will leave a redirect in the meantime. It saddens me that I have disappointed you. Candleabracadabra (talk) 17:40, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, well it is all sorted now, I have moved the draft back here so it has all the attribution required. Draft redirects here, and what not. --kelapstick(bainuu) 17:48, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks User:Kelapstick. Maybe this service you performed takes you off the shitlist. Maybe you can close this AfD as a SNOW keep/nomination withdrawn, if Candleabracabra blesses it? Drmies (talk) 18:39, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
