 * Delete all - fail WP:V. The author and an IP have repeatedly removed "unreferenced" tags. After the first AfD the main article was userfied to give the author time to improve and reference it, but he simply put it straight back in. At this point AGF gives up. Author's other article Abua should probably stay, as it appears that there is such a village, though too small to be actually marked on this map (click the "map" tab). Closing admin: if the result is "delete", consider whether (to save an additional MfD) User:Infinant/Kitami Woome should go too. JohnCD (talk) 10:29, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I have to agree with JohnCD. I tried really hard to give the creator a huge benefit of the doubt, but it seems like he is unwilling to provide references to this article, and I have never been able to find any. Ikip (talk) 10:36, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I am User Infianant. I have to say there are many kingdoms in the continent of Africa that are within the countries that were made as a result to European Imperialism. Most of these kingdoms are very small, some not with even 1,000,000 subjects. They are kingdoms though nonetheless. I am speaking on behalf of the Royal House of Woome, ruling family of the Village of Abua in Rivers State, Nigeria. His Excellency Prince Kitami Woome is indeed the Crown Prince of Abua which is populated of approximately 1,000,000 inhabitants. There are no electronic sources available anywhere to prove that he is however, the same as many others kingdoms in the continent of Africa. Abua, and many of the others Kingdoms in Africa have practiced centuries or oral documentation. Unless European colonialist made written documentation of any Kingdom there will be no reference of them. European colonialist made written documents of only very few of the hundreds of kingdoms already in the continent of Africa before there arrival. I can only state that Abua is a village in Rivers State, Nigeria. The Royal House of Woome is the ruling family of this village, and His Excellency Prince Kitami Woome is the Crown Prince of Abua. It is no possible for me to post refrences becuase there are simply no written refference of this, much less electronic reference. The people of our village, Abua Every thing I am saying to be true. The articles I put up on belaf of the Royal House of Woome are small and will not disrupt this mega website. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Infinant (talk • contribs) 11:29, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
 * The problem with these articles is that one of Wikipedia's fundamental policies is Verifiability: "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth... If no reliable, third-party sources can be found for an article topic, Wikipedia should not have an article on it." JohnCD (talk) 11:43, 13 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete all 3 nominated articles, unless additional sources can be provided. -- Oliver  Twisted (Talk) (Stuff) 14:27, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete this and other noted articles, lack of verifiable references. I doubt even with 419 attempts this Nigerian kingdom could be proven. -- Drappel (talk) 14:41, 13 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete all as unverifiable. Mjroots (talk) 16:27, 13 September 2009 (UTC)


 * This is Infinant once again, my articles are NOT a scam at all. I am simply bringing light to the village of Abua in Rivers State Nigeria; The Royal House of Woome, ruling family of this village; and His Excellency Prince Kitami Woome. I have already stated that there are NO written, or electronic refrences that prove this. Our tradition in Abua, as in many other African Kingdoms have been oral documentation for centuries. If any of you that want to delete my articles want, you can fly to Rivers State Nigeria go to the city of Port Harcourt, and from there go to Abua, which is about 10 miles away. The people of the village are very friendly and welcoming. When there you will find that the articles I put up are all true to every word. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.175.20.4 (talk) 22:22, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
 * We understand why you cannot give reliable sources for what you say, but that means that there cannot be a Wikipedia article about it. I repeat Wikipedia's fundamental policy of verifiability: "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth." Your articles may be true, but they cannot be verified, so they do not pass that threshold. "If no reliable, third-party sources can be found for an article topic, Wikipedia should not have an article on it." There is no more to discuss. JohnCD (talk) 14:33, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
