Mongonui assessment

This version of the Mongonui (New Zealand electorate) article looks very much like start class to me. Nicely referenced, all the info is there, 1685 bytes of prose. I'm curious as to why it got rejected? Schwede66 18:54, 4 January 2014 (UTC)

This was tough. I was debating whether or not to reject it on the split grounds that the article might not exist much longer. Ultimately, just to let you know, the 10 points attached to it are going to mean nothing to the contest. Mitch32^{(The man who renounces himself, comes to himself.)} 19:03, 4 January 2014 (UTC)

Ultimately, I'd be happy to give you the 10 points, but as I've said, it's not going to change anything. You're going to be 4th or 5th (Depending on what we decide on ChrisGualtieri) Mitch32^{(The man who renounces himself, comes to himself.)} 19:05, 4 January 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for your response. I placed the split tag myself, but you may have seen this. When I go ahead with the split, I will ensure that the outcomes are two articles that are both at least start class. During December, I've brought up every NZ electorate article between 1853 and 1949 to at least start class, and I won't create new stubs through splitting this one. But either way, what's in front of us is currently a start class article and I reckon that is what counts. Schwede66 19:32, 4 January 2014 (UTC)

BTW, I've done the split now. Schwede66 06:47, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

Alright. Right now, you're 4th, which would qualify you for a 25E Amazon card, so I will contact you as soon as Casliber and I are ready. Mitch32^{(The man who renounces himself, comes to himself.)} 17:45, 5 January 2014 (UTC)
