[edit] African code
The article makes no mention of the code having been adopted by anyone, and the official site's members page has no entries. Likewise, a Google search doesn't turn up much. The article is well-written, but I don't think its subject is notable enough yet for Wikipedia. I tagged with {{importance}}, which later got removed (see article's talk).

- Delete seems a sham, but the nom is right. ReverendG 03:19, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- strong keep, the african code is referenced in pan-africanism and is relevant, i think the members arent listed because it isnt really a membership thing, just a common ethos. but go ahead deleted it because racist democracy rules here, u can next add the delete tag to every pan-african thread.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Halaqah (talk • contribs) 06:10, December 2, 2006
- Please remember WP:CIVIL. Anyways, the complaint is that "African code" is not notable because it has not been referenced in any non-trivial sources. If you could find some please do, and I bet many of the people here will change their recommendations Copysan 21:01, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- I some how doubt that, do u realize the African code is mentioned in a few places and hence it became necessary to explain what it was a stub article. It is in Pan-Africanism so people reading that want to know what is it. I rememeber i added anti-African and that got deleted, yet Anti-everybody can live on Wikipedia, but it is in my imagination.--Halaqah 00:01, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
- Where has it been mentioned? If something is notable enough to be on Wikipedia, it must be the subject of "multiple, non-trivial published works whose sources are independent of the subject itself." Right now, we dont see any evidence that African Code has been talked about in any sort of third party work. Copysan 02:16, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
