Non-notable student flat. First reference only confirms that students live in North Dunedin, no references to notable former residents. Also, Notability is not inherited. dramatic (talk) 03:01, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Delete - Agree with the nominator. I can't find anything that makes me feel as though this complex meets WP:NOTE. Wisdom89 _{(_T / ^C)} 04:44, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
Delete This article doesn't meet with WP:NOTE. Some parts are good but overall, its not very good.--RyRy5 talk 05:26, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
Delete The fact that a few famous people have lived there at various times doesn't make it notable, and it has no other claim to fame. --Helenalex (talk) 09:53, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
Delete - Agree with above. No assertion of notability Think outside the box 19:12, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Keep - a user called snowcam entered their thoughts in favour of the article on the article's discussion page and found a much improved reference. He has since added it to the article. It describes how dunedin flats acquire legendary status and specifically names Clyde Street in the top five of Dunedin's most infamous student streets.— Reddo5000 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. {{ #if: | The preceding unsigned comment was added at {{{2}}} (UTC).}}

: Comment That article might be a good reference for a section of Dunedin or Otago University, but it doesn't verify that the kelpfish exists.dramatic (talk) 01:01, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Strong Keep And why the hell not! And what happened to my page about my dog Fluffy? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.214.15.223 (talk) 12:27, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Delete - not notable, not mentioned in the Listener reference, Michael Cullen studied at Canterbury not Otago. The only thing distinguishing it from the hundreds of other similiar flats in the area is a sign above the door. XLerate (talk) 08:22, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Delete - The Kelpfish certainly does exist, but it's utterly non-notable. If articles on halls of residence are borderline deletes (as has been shown here frequently), then articles on individual student flats are 100 times as deletable. Do we really want articles on all the dozens of named student flats in the North End? If so, I can come up with the names of a large number significantly more notable than The Kelpfish (Pink Flat - The Door; Toad Works; The Pink Pussy; Narnia Flat; Footrot Flat; etc etc etc). And Cullen was a lecturer at Otago, not a student there. Grutness...wha? 23:52, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
