 * Delete: cannot find WP:RS for this, fails WP:EVENT and WP:GNG.   Dr Strauss   talk   18:02, 16 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep – The source at the bottom of the article is from the official web page of the South African Practical Shooting Association (SAPSA), which hosts these championships each year. If that isn't a reliable source, what is then? SAPSA was one of the original founding organizations of the IPSC and is one of the most active regions. They have held the Handgun World Shoots four times (1979, 1981, 2002 and the special championship of 1991). Counting the the special championship of 1991, that is more than any other IPSC Region. If not counting the '91 championship, SAPSA is still only matched by USPSA who has also hosted the regular Handgun World Shoots three times. Anyways, I think the page nominated for deletion is well deserved and should be kept. Sauer202 (talk) 10:19, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete fails WP:GNG. Too specific, there already is an article on the level 4 IPSC African Handgun Championship. I don't have a question about sources, it just isn't notable.  Nik ol ai Ho ☎️ 20:45, 17 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete – This creates a precedent to delete all other articles of IPSC National Championships. It is OK with me, but then the following articles should also be deleted/redirected. I have made copies of the articles below, and maybe the information can be re-used outside Wikipedia. Sauer202 (talk) 18:48, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
