[edit] Mangateparu

Makes no sense. Where is this place? A2Kafir 04:05, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• Makes perfect sense to me, and a simple Google search would have told you that this is a place in New Zealand. It gets 89 unique hits. However, I can't tell if it's a town, neighborhood, or something else. Tentative Keep until we can get a New Zealander in here that knows more. android↔talk 04:54, Apr 24, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and wikify real places. Kappa 11:29, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• Weak keep. It's a rural district, a locality, and I think it's rather marginal for an article, but the article does no harm. Now that the school has closed, there's probably not much there. Google gives me 552 hits.-gadfium 20:17, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. it is a small place, but no less deserving of an article than many others I've seen on WP. Marginal, as Gadfium said, but I don't see much wrong in that. I've added a little bit more info about it. Grutness|^hello? 00:49, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Keep since you guys figured out where it was and improved it. Can I vote against my own VfD? A2Kafir 18:13, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
