Proposed deletion

(copying text from Talk:No Commercial Airport at Whenuapai Airbase Party)

While I agree this is a minnow in the NZ political ecosystem, the list of Political parties in New Zealand has a clear policy of listing unregistered parties. This party has at least bothered to apply to register a logo, which puts them in the same category as the Liberals and a step above some which are listed (or have historically been listed).

Party registration in New Zealand is only necessary to contest the list vote. Unregistered parties can and do run electorate candidates, and this bunch are expected to do so. I don't expect it to be more than one or two, but we seem quite happy to include numerous unregistered parties which run at most two candidates per election, or even none at all.

As a party with a registered logo which is expected to run candidates in Parliamentary elections, it should be listed. --IdiotSavant (talk) 09:01, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

POV Check

The NZRP probably is (or was) a right-wing party, but the article's statement to that effect is POV editorializing. It needs to be substantiated with a reference to authority, or else deleted. J. D. Crutchfield | Talk 22:09, 16 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Looking for more citations to show notability

I've tried to add more citations to demonstrate notability. However, I don't think it is met.

According to WP:ORGCRIT, "a company, corporation, organization, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject." They give a table to show how to apply the criteria, and I've tried to use it for this article.

Source Significant? Independent? Reliable? Secondary? Pass/Fail Notes
Electoral Commission logo application Red XN Green tickY Green tickY Green tickY Red XN A single-sentence mention.
Nelson Mail on logo rejection Green tickY Green tickY Green tickY Green tickY Green tickY I think this does count as "significant" coverage, though it is only a few paragraphs.
NZRP website Question? Red XN Red XN Question? Red XN Primary source. Also, dead link with no archived version.
"Clash with councillors" Red XN Green tickY Green tickY Red XN Red XN Doesn't mention the party at all
Turner running for councillor Red XN Green tickY Green tickY Red XN Red XN Doesn't mention the party at all
Total qualifying sources 1 There must be multiple qualifying sources to meet the notability requirements

I think that the subject matter from this article would be better merged with the list article List of political parties in New Zealand as there are not enough sources to justify a standalone article. What are other people's thoughts? HenryCrun15 (talk) 21:44, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
