Not notable. Also see Sideburns. However, I would recommend against a redirect to sideburns, since the most proper use of this word in Hawaii is Huliheʻe Palace. A search thorough Hawaiian dictionaries brings up nothing. The word is, for Wikipedia purposes, only related to the Hawaiian palace. — Maile (talk) 11:50, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment Yes, thank you — Maile ! I've been wondering about this for ages. Try google books or something. I can't due to my location. If there's nothing there, then there's probably nothing elsewhere, because I've checked elsewhere. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 12:02, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Anna Frodesiak my gut instinct was to delete this, but decided to get other opinions. I do a lot of work on Hawaii material, and I don't see this as notable. There's nothing about the image that indicates the whiskers as different than that of a lot of men over the centuries. — Maile (talk) 12:31, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I totally agree. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 00:24, 8 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• I can't quite accept the rationale of not redirecting an article because another article of similar name exists and will cause confusion, so therefore deletion is necessary to avoid a confusing redirect. I would observe that, whilst this page deserves the prize for the most laughable citation ever, the term 'Hulihee' is clearly in use to refer to a type of beard (here, here, here) So my !vote would be to Rename without a redirect to Hulihee (beard), then redirect that title to Sideburns.

• Redirect per Nick Moyes (including the move so Hulihe'e Palace is the primary topic), but I feel List of facial hairstyles is a better target. power~enwiki (π, ν) 16:57, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'd not seen List of facial hairstyles. I agree it is a better target to redirect to. Nick Moyes (talk) 20:06, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
