Dali Mpofu moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Dali Mpofu, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the confirms on the Articles for Creation template atop the page.

Deletion discussion about Benny Mayengani
Hello, DESMOND MABASA,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Benny Mayengani should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Articles for deletion/Benny Mayengani.

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,

Concern regarding Draft:Malamulele Rapper.
Hello, DESMOND MABASA. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:Malamulele Rapper., a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Draft space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for article space.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion under CSD G13. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available here.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. Bot0612 (talk) 04:31, 13 December 2018 (UTC)
