Notability[edit]

This party meets the notability criteria for NZ political parties because it is running candidates in the upcoming general election. --IdiotSavant (talk) 01:58, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree it is worth keeping, but it needs to be expanded upon. Meatsgains (talk) 02:05, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That's why you create a stub :). But there's usually some coverage of minnow and unregistered parties during the campaign; I'll just have to keep an eye out for it.--IdiotSavant (talk) 03:50, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the WP:Prod because the party had candidates in the 2008 general election and is contesting the 2011 general election. The Prod reasoning of there not being independent sources is wrong, as the New Zealand Electoral Commission is cited. Schwede 66 20:23, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The New Zealand Electoral Commission reference is to a database entry created when the party fielded a candidate. This is not an independent source. Stuartyeates (talk) 20:35, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If the Electoral Commission isn't an independent and definitive source of who is running in an election, then no-one is (after all, where do you think newspapers get their information from? The Electoral Commission. Though if you'd prefer a laundered source, there's one here).

We have a policy of including all NZ parties that run candidates. This party is running a candidate. I am hoping that there will be other media coverage during the campaign to link to to expand this article (usually there are "meet the candidates" articles). At the least, we will have a final vote tally afterwards (though that will also come from the Electoral Commission).--IdiotSavant (talk) 01:06, 9 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
