This appears to be a hoax. The Blue Mountains (Australia) and Glenbrook, New South Wales (where the explorers passed through) are in Australia, not New Zealand. Grahame (talk) 06:13, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - the NZ reference was a bit of mis-wikifying see here. The original reads as made up - Peripitus (Talk) 06:40, 23 January 2009 (UTC)Keep - Bloody good work Dramatic - Peripitus (Talk) 09:25, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]- Speedy Keep - apart from the link to the wrong Glenbrook, which is easily fixed, the lagoon exists and there are good sources for everything in the article: [1], [2], [3], [4]. dramatic (talk) 07:03, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment, there is still some question whether the lagoon is notable in its own right or whether this couldn't be included in the Glenbrook, New South Wales article.--Grahame (talk) 10:15, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - Passes Wikipedia:Notability (geography), which isn't official policy but states that named geographic features (eg lakes) are usually notable. Certainly do not delete, at most a redirect to Glenbrook, New South Wales, but the information in the sources already provided gives plenty of scope for expansion into a good stub or even full article.-Yeti Hunter (talk) 10:27, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - as a named geographic feature. Furthermore, there are sources. As the editor who wikified the article, I should have been a little more vigilant as the original author is a vandal who is now blocked. -- Whpq (talk) 11:45, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Nomination withdrawn in view of the effort to convert the original silly and unsourced article into a real article.--Grahame (talk) 11:57, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
