Zimbabwean traditional music

 * – ( View AfD View log )

I converted this to a redirect, however the creator has contested and re-created the article, it is pretty much an unsourced essay and it is hard to tell what the article is actually talking about. The title could redirect to Music of Zimbabwe. Dylsss(talk contribs) 00:21, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

 * Strongest possible delete. This article has NOTHING to do with Zimbabwean music, and appears like it may be a blatant hoax.

 * Comment. Adding to the nomination, it is a load of WP:OR and possibly a hoax as said above. Dylsss(talk contribs) 00:29, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete: Nothing to do with traditional music at all, but the content might be of use in some other article (if they manage to find sources for it). Might be a hoax, we don't know, delete nonetheless.   Oshawott 12  ==== Talk to me!  06:57, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
 * In addition, not once does the article mention music.   Oshawott 12  ==== Talk to me!  07:00, 18 November 2020 (UTC)


 * The current title should be a redirect to Music of Zimbabwe, but my guess is that the author was trying to write about the backstory of "Kariga mombe", a traditional Shona song everyone who learns the mbira learns to play . It is however an essay and not directly about the song. – Thjarkur (talk) 16:01, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
