Palmerston North Boys' High School 3rd XV
A High School's third Rugby team, however triumphant is simply not encyclopedic. Also suffers from POV and OR issues. --Aoratos 10:24, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge a condensed form into Palmerston North Boys' High School. They seem notable enough to have some content there, but not really for their own page, and this does indeed need to be cleaned pre-merge. GassyGuy 10:27, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
 * On second thought, I can't even find info about the team at, which seems like the place where it would be. Delete unless something can be sourced. If it can, I revert back to my merge suggestion. GassyGuy 10:46, 24 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete, unless the information in the article can be properly sourced, in that case, merge in condensed form, as above. --JoanneB 10:34, 24 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Strong Delete It's strange to have an article about a specific sports team from a school, especially the THIRD team. This has obviously been put here by someone currently in the team or related to the team in some way.  If I was a more experienced wikipedian I would have just deleted it on first sight...

 * I hope you wouldn't :) It does not meet any of the speedy criteria (as it definitely asserts notability), so AfD is the way to go. Let's not stretch the speedy deletion criteria without discussion... --JoanneB 12:17, 24 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Ooooh. My bad. Ham21 12:22, 24 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete (or merge if sources can be found) per GassyGuy. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  12:47, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per all AdamBiswanger1 18:29, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete The most that is needed is info on what sports a school plays and which tournaments its first teams have won. Landolitan 18:32, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Hey, an article from my home town! It's great to see local people taking an interest in Wikipedia, and very encouraging for the future of online information in New Zealand. Delete unverifiable. Z iggurat 21:55, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of New Zealand-related deletions.   --  Z iggurat 21:59, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge if references added before end of AfD. JYolkowski // talk 22:03, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, unverifiable. Possible vanity, given that this is the third team. I'd vote to merge if it were the first team, but this is the third. --Core des at talk. o.o;; 01:01, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - vanity page-- Conrad Devonshire  Talk  07:13, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, possibly vanity, but a case could be made for speedy deletion as an attack page.-gadfium 08:47, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
