 * Keep Egedege Dance is a part of African cultural heritage, the content of our article is verifiable/fixable, see . --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 20:52, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Yes, the article does fail to establish notability and also has bad sources. AFD is not cleanup. I did a quick rewrite that was lost when the site for a bit last night, and found enough reliable sources just through google books.--Banana (talk) 05:41, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Delete nothing in gnews and 3 passing mentions in gbooks. LibStar (talk) 04:47, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
 * CommentThis traditional Nigerian dance is not the best topic for G-News search. I agree, Egedege is not Samba, but the information is verifiable and valuable, see also Nigerian Arts and Culture Directory Project (NACD). Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 17:27, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Very weak keep. Couldn't find much in a quick google search but I'll take Vejvančickýs word that the article may be fixable, perhaps maybe from offline sources. Have any books been written about this that google hasn't indexed? We can always revisit this issue in a few months of nothing more can be found. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 23:32, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
