purportedly unsubstantiated yadda yadda Wikipedia does not deal in rumors Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 05:09, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
- Delete - The first line "a suspected but unsubstantiated South African terrorist group" says it's a rumor. It fails WP:V. This article has existed 2005, and in those 10 years no one has provided sources to substantiate its existence. Doing a Google search brings up nothing but other sites that repeat that same sentence - suspected, but unsubstantiated. In the current state of the world, terrorist groups by name are all over the news, and on lists of state security agencies. This one would have shown up somewhere. This could be a hoax. This could be anything, but what it cannot be is an encyclopedic article as it currently exists. — Maile (talk) 13:44, 9 July 2015 (UTC)

- Redirect - to 2002 Soweto bombings, seems to lack significant coverage in reliable sources per WP:GNG so unable to sustain an article of its own. Seems a viable search term though. Anotherclown (talk) 08:57, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect although I would've easily said delete as well with my searches finding nothing good at all. SwisterTwister talk 05:51, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
- Delete due to lack of sources. It's easy to start rumors, if this one is real, sources will follow and there can be an article then. Bur, really, basing on an article on "unauthenticated" letters? It is a common technique to smear an enemy by sending fake letters. WP is better than this.E.M.Gregory (talk) 21:13, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
