 * Keep AfD is not cleanup. The Somali Patriotic Movement was a distinct southern grouping that was part of the coalition that overthrew the Barre regime in 1991. There's ample sourcing available.

 * There's clearly versions of the article in its history which do not include material copied from the Somali National Movement article. Given the editor responsible for the present problems is now blocked, simple reversion to a previous version of the article is possible, no TNT necessary here.

 * These seem to be passing mentions and not SIGCOV as required for orgs. LegalSmeagolian (talk) 16:16, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
 * @Goldsztajn, which version do you propose restoring the article to? -- asilvering (talk) 03:05, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep, the organization is completely different from the SNM and deleting the page for a historically significant armed movement (look it up, the SPM as one of the major rebel groups that overthrew Siad Barre) because some guy made dumb edits to the page isn't a good idea. It needs cleanup and additional sources added, not deletion. - presidentofyes, the super aussa man 03:05, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep, per the above arguments. Bulbajer (talk) 03:17, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
