Draft:Sukuma Calendar[edit]

Delete and salt. Non-notable and possibly a WP:hoax. The main namespace article was deleted (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sukuma calendar), and I have WP:SALTed Sukuma calendar and Sukuma Calendar per the topic being non-notable yet articles being repeatedly created, and per this possibly being a hoax.

Am not persuaded it is a hoax, it is certainly not a "blatant hoax" as asserted at AfD. It may be a clever hoax. I problem for decision making here is that the worst hoax material is deleted and hidden from me. But, what matters is that Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sukuma calendar shows a clear consensus to delete. Delete per that consensus. Mentions of a 2700 year old calendar system in 3000 year old sources is plausible, but extraordinary, and so good sources are needed. The draft references reliable sources, broadly, too broadly to assess. For this topic, inline sources to page numbers should be required. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 07:07, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
