Cape Haig

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Unnotable. The article can only be traced on derivations of this article or list pages such as freebase, maporado or Zimbabweprop. It may even be a hoax inclusion on such pages. Even on these pages it refers only to a farm. Babakathy (talk) 13:44, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment: I'm sure this isn't a hoax: User:Editorofthewiki created the article, and he tends to work from databases, government census data, etc. I'd forward this to him and see if we can come up with a references or several to sort out if this is supposed to be Haig farm or what.

 * Haig as per your link is in Mashonaland East and Cape Haig is allegedly in Mashonaland West per the article. It is also a farm, not a settlement and unlikely to be notable. Babakathy (talk) 08:11, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Please note: I'm not proposing this: it was listed in the discussion on the talk page of the article, and seems a reasonable starting point if you accept this is not a hoax but a case of confusion in a gazetteer or database. It would be nice to do some research here to see if this is a valid topic or not, and what if any of it is incorrect. T L Miles (talk) 00:09, 9 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment there is a property for sale website zimbabweprop.com that has a linke for Cape Haig, but alas no listings and no indication whether it refers to a town or village (notable), or merely a farm, development, or condo complex (not). In either event, I wouldn't regard this as a hoax, but I would like the creator to chime in with some sourcing - which is really the responsibility of the those wanting to keep the article to show that it is WP:V.

 * The sites freebase, maporado and Zimbabweprop have the same list of "towns", but no sources or other information. It is quite possible that insertion of a "town" into one list leads to the others picking it up. Babakathy (talk) 09:05, 8 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,  MBisanz  talk 00:11, 11 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete - Until some source is offered. Not to sound from the cabal, but...  Ceran  llama chat post 12:23, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
