- Weak keep as a place that has a place in South African folklore. This is definitely not something for Wiktionary as suggested by some in the previous Afd. The place verifiably exists and there are some sources. The article needs more sources especially ones detailing its place in folklore, but that is not a reason to delete. I found several places where it was used in advertising, and elsewhere, to be a stand-in for a very rural location, i.e. "the middle of nowhere", but no academic discussion of this phenomenon. But I did find this sentence in the October 2014 Hartebeest Conservation Newsletter Like Pofadder, the farm has become a bit of a legend in Afrikaans folklore and is often used to depict typical farm culture in South Africa. --Bejnar (talk) 04:12, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

- Keep as a place and name that has cultural relevance in South Africa. The same arguments were made in the previous AfD discussion. According to traffic stats it sees about 1k views per month, so certainly not nothing. dewet|✉ 11:26, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
- Keep historical use. long-words trivia too. national folklore status. Cramyourspam (talk) 15:01, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
- Keep per User Dewet. The place and it's name is a feature of South African folklore and popular culture. The name is also used in grammar textbooks to illustrate the agglutinative nature of Afrikaans. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 08:05, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
