[edit] Uekera

This was one of the 50+ Polynesian mythology articles submitted in a big batch (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ahoeitu). After much discussion at that afd, I'm re-submitting all of the items individually. Some of them may be keepers, most of them will be deletable. I'm deferring to editors such as User:Kahuroa who know their Polynesian mythology as to which is which. Grutness...wha? 05:22, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. No entry in Craig, Dictionary of Polynesian Mythology. Notability unclear; unverified. Bucketsofg 05:34, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Keep. I edited to remove the 'Polynesian mythology' category because this is not Polynesian - Kiribati is in Micronesia. An illustration of the reliability of some of these stubs. I now say 'weak keep' because it has references and I am not conversant with Micronesian mythology. Kahuroa 06:34, 31 March 2006 (UTC) edited --Kahuroa 20:15, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Later comment: Definite Keep - now well sourced by Crypticfirefly below. Kahuroa 06:38, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

• Keep - as above. For great justice. 16:43, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

'As above' means as the original poster mentioned ("Some of them may be keepers . . . I'm deferring to editors . . . as to which is which") For great justice. 18:42, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

But I also make it clear in my nomination that most of them are not keepers. Voting keep for all of these irrespective of whether they deserve it is a bit strange, to say the least, and positively misleading in many cases. Grutness...wha? 02:07, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

• I'm gonna go with a Weak Delete for now, unless a better source can be found.--Cúchullain t c 16:35, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Since I'm the one who added the references. (I've added a few better ones as well this evening, after the AfD began.)Crypticfirefly 03:03, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
