The result of the discussion was:  keep. Closing a bit early on this, but it's basically a snow keep and it looks like the nominator may have attempted to withdraw the nomination previously. RL0919 (talk) 00:17, 9 November 2019 (UTC)

Draft:Condina

 * Keep. A reasonable draft of a draft.  Many accepted topics could have been considered a definition in their earliest draft.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 06:50, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep: if the draft creator reads Verifiability and Your first article, there might be a chance that enough reliable sources cover the topic to make it encyclopedic. If they don't do that and neither does any user, tag it for G13 in six months' time.  It would be declined in its current state but that's the point of the draftspace.

 * Keep OK, I smiled at "References: I heard about it on Judge Judy." But there's nothing wrong with this draft. Incomplete and poorly sourced articles are what draftspace is for, and this article was just created yesterday so the user may still be working on it. SpicyMilkBoy (talk) 15:09, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment - The nominator, User:Train of Knowledge, has removed the MFD tag from the draft, saying that the decision was to keep the article. Standard procedure is to let the MFD run for seven days.  If the author or a third party had removed the tag, it would be in order to replace the tag and caution the editor who removed the tag.  A removal of the tag by the nominator may be a withdrawal of the nomination.  Should someone check with the nominator to verify that the nomination is withdrawn and then close the MFD as withdrawn?

 * Keep. A reasonable draft. Wm335td (talk) 20:52, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep. Strong sympathy with the nominator here, however, I managed to find one ref in the LA Times to a "Condina" from 1996 (still not sure what it really is).  However, I also think this is just another name for a Tanda (informal loan club), and have suggested on the AfC draft that it is merged with Tanda (and join the long list of other names for these savings plans).  However, given that I am not sure I fully understand what a Condina really is, I should probably not be the one to do this? Britishfinance (talk) 13:09, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Strong keep This page is not ready for mainspace, and may well never be. But this kind of good faith first attempt at an articel is precisely the sort of thing (or one of the sorts of things, anyway) that draft is for. This nomination violates WP:BITE in my view, and I trust it will not be repeated. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 05:06, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
