My case is that it is not possible in a diverse and multi-cultural globe to easily decide who or what is "non-notable". In particular, may I draw attention to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ungana-Afrika and say that I know these guys to be doing some amazing work in the ICT-for-development sphere. Question is: how would you know whether to trust my judgement or not?
As with many things on Wikipedia, things would be easier if people stuck to areas that they kno about.
Lately, I have edited articles about French government issues on en:; they contained inaccuracies due to the use of third-hand media such as CNN (CNN copying information from the French media and communiqués which were translations on communiqués etc.) whereas direct, first-hand information was available as long as one could read French.
The same happened when some people who apparently didn't know anything about the issues began to question the "left wing" and "right wing" qualifications used in articles on French politics, whereas, as it is even said in some articles, these reflect the usual classification of the French media. (I doubt that the same people would have questioned the use of "liberal" for Hillary Clinton.)
The solution is simple: if you don't know about what happens in country X (beyond some surface knowledge through the media), just don't touch articles dealing with it, and especially don't delete articles.
