keep. Perhaps you should try "German African Party" + "South West Africa", which is what Namibia was called until the late 1980s! Apparently it was an anti-Nazi party, and it is mentioned in documents at Yale (see [2]), though there seems to be very little about it on Google. Yale's enough to convince me that it's legit, though. Also mentioned by its German name at 08.02.1939 here. Grutness...wha? 08:52, 1 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly how is this political party not notable? If you vote to delete, it's useful to give counter arguments to the one made by Grutness. - Mgm|^(talk) 13:23, 1 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Grutness: extremely notable in context of Namibian colonial history (part of WWII minority opposition to Nazi influence in South-West Africa). Humansdorpie 00:09, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
