Okahandja[edit]

~~an unneccessary one-line definition of an insignificant place UkPaolo 15:50, 30 May 2005 (UTC)~~ OK, agreed... Keep. I've just been reading about it on Google, and would agree the article is clearly worthy of being kept, although it is in serious need of expanding. Hedley - I'd never consider it insignificant solely based on it being in Namibia. UkPaolo 16:50, 30 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, bordering on strong keep. Over 80,000 Google hits for "Okahandja". Just because its in Namibia doesn't make it 'insignificant' - It's the same size as a lot of US towns with articles. The article is very poor, and needs expansion without a doubt (substubs are gone which doesn't help), but the topic is notable. Hedley 15:55, 30 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and expand. Actually, I'll probably expand it myself in a few minutes here. We need more African content on Wikipedia, not less. Scimitar 16:37, 30 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I have expanded it into a decent stub (in my own opinion, at any rate). I think it rates a keep, now. Scimitar 16:50, 30 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Great job, Scimitar... you're right that makes it a decent stub, certainly deserving of being kept now. UkPaolo 16:52, 30 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Scimitar's stub and expand. Well done Scimitar. Capitalistroadster 00:51, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep (my vote would have been keep even without expansion) - good work that Scimitar. Grutness...wha? 04:58, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep by all means. - Mustafaa 18:47, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
