unsourced and non-notable strain of cannabis -- JediLofty User ¦ Talk 17:00, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Coccyx Bloccyx 19:45, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep and rename to Northern Lights (marijuana) or another title more consistent with related articles. Expand and cite as reliable sources are found.  Winner of the Cannabis Cup and other (probably less notable) awards; one of the most notable strains of marijuana, and probably one of the more noted strains of any plant.

 * Barno I am not aware of what awards this has won but if you have some credible sources on the matter I will change my vote. Coccyx Bloccyx 22:05, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Google search shows lots of user-submitted content, with plenty of samples that directly reference winning the Cup, but no reliable sources that I know. Until the inquiry up above draws reliable sources, the best I know is HIGH TIMES magazine which has (so I'm told) printed centerfold features on Northern Lights and White Widow, as well as a feature article each year on the competition and awards.

 * Burn it for lacking reliable sources to verify its existance. Ten Pound Hammer  • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 23:59, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep, source, and cleanup. A Google News search yields plenty of high quality secondary sources for this . Low quality sources also indicate it's a significant variety. • Gene93k (talk) 00:31, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - as with most of the cannabis articles, it has no reputable sources whatsoever. -- JediLofty User ¦ Talk 09:36, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per Gene93k. Orphic (talk) 06:16, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. There are verifiable assertions of notability, and sourcing is grounds for good revision, not deletion.  Bacchiad (talk) 23:47, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
