- Was AfD-tagged as "original /fantasy/synthesis", but I suspect that the Vaiphei may exist. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 09:40, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Rudimentary Google Books search shows they exist. This article is part of the interesting flow of OR coming out of South Asia into poorly maintained Wikipedia articles-- don't stub it just yet. Shii (tock)

- Keep An ethnic group that has coverage in gbooks and possibly a lot more offline resources. The article as it stands doesn't help much, I'm going to stub and reference it in the hope that sourced expansion will happen. -SpacemanSpiffCalvin‡Hobbes 05:05, 3 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. he ethnic group exists, and an article about them can be interesting. Of course, as everyone pointed out, it would need to be rewritten and widely expanded. McMarcoP (talk) 08:34, 3 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Concerns about it's existence have been addressed, and there are references that support keeping this a stub that will hopefully grow over time Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 13:11, 3 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
