Cape Verdean Belgian

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

While I don't wish to imply there are no Cape Verdeans in Belgium - this expat website has two and this article mentions them existing in passing - a thorough search in French, Dutch, English and German yields no further information about them (except this article). The article itself currently contains two sentences, one a dictionary definition and the other a mention of a well-known Cape Verdean Belgian. (The article used to have a third sentence, but I removed it because it lacked a source.) I therefore believe this subject to be not notable enough.

(Please excuse me in case I made a mistake in the deletion procedure. This is the first time I'm nominating an article for deletion.) Amphicoelias (talk) 16:55, 3 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete Concur with nom. There are twenty different Cape Verdean articles (see template) and some seem to have substantial content.  This one does not and doesn't seem that it ever could (unless there is some change in migration from Cape Verde to Belgium).  Fails on notability. MB 05:45, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Hold Leaning delete and couldn't find anything: But, I've put out a couple of ILL requests on some potentially promising articles. Please don't close until at least 12 Jan so that I can get the sources and check if they help notability. Once again: Multiple searches revealed nothing of substance which would be able to support GNG notability. I will scratch and edit this when I receive the sources. No RS coverage of note.
