[edit] Sweetumbia
AfDs for this article:
Looks very hoaxy. No Ghits for Sweetumbia or Menawhuii, and very suspicious that a village founded 250 years ago would appear to have the same name as the person currently running it. No hits for the powerful Zulantie family, either. Unless verification can be found, this one should go. Grutness...wha? 00:06, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- Strong delete NPOV issues, and this even sounds like a copyvio! —Jonathan | Quality, not quantity. 00:20, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- Speedy Delete as nonsense. Google search turns up a random webpage that is not related and... guess what, the article! --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 01:35, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- Speedy delete as nonsense. The article says the village is located "out side of the South African boarder". So what country is it in? --Metropolitan90 (talk) 02:38, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- Comment - it may be nonsense, but it's not patent nonsense - in that it is coherent enough to make some sort of sense. As such, it isn't speediable (see WP:CSD). Grutness...wha? 05:31, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- You may be right, but I think this article possibly could be considered "completely and irredeemably confused" so as to be considered "patent nonsense" as described at Wikipedia:Patent nonsense. Note that the village is run by a "headmaster with a specialization in foreign relations" yet has "no modern influence". Well, this article is going to be deleted regardless, so if we have to wait five days, we can wait five days. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 06:32, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
