Please delete "Wairoa is a Mongrel Mob gang stronghold." because this is not true at all! Refer www.wairoadc.govt.nz

As this appears to be the reason the page was locked in the first place there needs to be more discussion about this here on the talk page. --Jnorton7558 (talk) 13:56, 27 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The page you mention contains a media release on its front page: "Enquiries will be made into the gang situation in Wairoa", and the detail quotes the mayor as saying "“I explained that the situation with the gangs in Wairoa had reached a crisis point". See [1]. This does not support your statement that Wairoa is not a Mongrel Mob gang stronghold, unless you are claiming that it is more influenced by a different gang. However, recent media reports such as [2] indicate that the Mongrel Mob is still active in the town.-gadfium 21:04, 27 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
