[edit] Iroijlaplap

Delete Low noteablity and very little useful information to form an article.Davidpdx 09:04, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep. Severely needs expansion and references. "Little useful information" is somewhat truish, but I can't see how this would not be notable enough. We have articles on titles and official positions from other countries and cultures. up+land 10:43, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep and expand. JPD (talk) 11:01, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep and expand. I was initially suspicious, because this seemed an oddly shaped word for a Malayo-Polynesian language, but Google appears to confirm it. Smerdis of Tlön 15:58, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
    • I found the Marshallese constitution online, and expanded the article with information from it. The constitution is pretty clear that there are more than one incumbent Iroijlaplaps at a time, so that too has been corrected. More information about succession rules and such might still be added.

  • Keep, especially after that added stuffs. --PresN 19:16, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. I don't really see any good reasons to delete this. Alphachimp talk 23:51, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. As to the name not sounding like a Malayo-Polynesian language, it doesn't sound Polynesian or melanesian, but it definitely sounds Micronesian. have a look at some of the island names in the Marshalls and Northern Marianas! Grutness...wha? 06:52, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep as per others. --Merovingian (T, C, @) 06:54, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
