Glen Garriff Lion Reserve

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article about a lion sanctuary in South Africa, probably written with well-meaning though misguided intent (same author wrote Andi Rive article that was based on an email interview) but it is difficult to establish whether this is a notable farm. There is some sort of unidentified TV series (described in this TV fansite) and a brief mention in a news article about a lion. Apart from that I've struggled to find anything reliable or significant. If it was the subject of a TV series on a major Tv channel (and received some journalistic interest) I may have been convinced to let the article pass. As it is, I think the subject falls below the WP:GNG threshold. Sionk (talk) 21:37, 1 July 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete and draft/userfy - As much as I love subjects like these, I'm not finding any good sources about it aside from various links here. I'm not from South Africa so I'm not sure about the coverage there but I'm not seeing much for possible improvement. For other users, it's worth noting the article was larger until it was removed.

 * Comment. A bit of additional RS (but perhaps incidental) coverage: major South African newspapers reported in November 2014 about the move of 2 lions from the Pretoria Zoo to the Glen Garriff Lion Farm.  . --Arxiloxos (talk) 17:18, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Note they are all the same, identically worded (and short) SAPA news article. Sionk (talk) 18:06, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
