Proposed deletion of Liberal Democrats (Zimbabwe)


The article Liberal Democrats (Zimbabwe) has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * No evidence of satisfying Wikipedia's notability guidelines. (Of the references, one is the party's own web site, one barely mentions the party in passing, and the others don't mention it at all.)

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on |the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

 * Hello Vsibbs. I had to delete the article again, as it was only just deleted before after this discussion: Articles for deletion/Liberal Democrats (Zimbabwe). My advice now is: 1) declare any connection you have to this party, see WP:COI; 2) edit some other articles about things you may be interested in but aren't yourself connected to, to get a feel for how Wikipedia works; 3) add more reliable sources to the version in your sandbox; 4) once the article appears to meet our guidelines including notability, go to deletion review to make the case for allowing this article to be recreated.
