The result was that no one had closed this after 10 days and no consensus had been reached, so I've decided to clean up the article and move it to the suggested location. Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 14:43, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Independent Mails of New Zealand.
Unsalvagable, incomprehensible text. The title does not match the content (as far as there is any). Orignally created by an since then unused IP address. Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 09:05, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per nom, adding that the article looks like an ad for "http://www.stampshop.150m.com". Ruaraidh-dobson 11:24, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
- Looking at List of entities that have issued postage stamps (M - Z) I see that Postage stamps and postal history of New Zealand has yet to be written. This could be salvaged as a stub by renaming and adding some introduction. But, equally, a stub could be written from scratch just as easily. Uncle G 12:26, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
- Keep: Though unsourced and of poor quality, appears to be about a legitimate mail service in New Zealand. Tag for improvement. Rohirok 16:42, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

- Delete as per Ruaraidh-dobson --r2b2 03:33, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
- Rename per Uncle G. The mail in NZ is deregulated, so anyone can set up an independent mail company and many have done so. The advert should be removed, but the general article once cleaned up is certain to be of interest to philatelists, and there's the beginnings of good information here. If no-one else wants to clean it up I'm happy to do so myself. Ziggurat 03:37, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, just start over. Recury 03:56, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
- Rename per Uncle G and Ziggurat. -- Avenue 04:31, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, any postal history of New Zealand would be better if started fresh.-gadfium 04:56, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
- I'll vote rename myself then, but this article MUST be cleaned up after that. Perhaps someone from New Zealand understands what the article is trying to say (the explanation by Ziggurat makes sense), but to an outsider this article is gibberish. Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 08:14, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
