Thank you so much for the link Iolanda, I'm definitely having it on my watchlist !!

And just for arguments sake I don't think it's about creating articles on topics and people that are notable, In fact this is one of the main purpose why we have this mailing list specifically for African Wikimedians, to find ways on how we can increase as much African content as we can. However the issue of referencing/citation is still a thorn.

Warm regards,

Bobby Shabangu

I have just discovered that there is a page where it is possible to monitor articles for delation related to Africa.
you find it here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Deletion_sorting/Africa

maybe it can be relevant to put this page among your favorite pages or to check it once in a while if you want to provide your opinion.
I think people in this mailing list might enrich significantly the discussions related to delation.

it is healthy to delate articles which present topics and people that are indeed not notable. but as we know, sometimes you need to have some background knowledge to actually know what is notable and what is not. your contribution in this would be great.

thanks,
