This article fails WP:GNG and is entirely made up of WP:OR and WP:SYNTH. None of the sources mention "Al Bu Sa'ad". Additionally, there is a "Culture and cuisine" section which seems to have no relation to the topic of the article. Skitash (talk) 16:56, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
- The Culture section refers to the culture and cuisine of the Al Bu Sa’ad tribe. Additionally, the sources refer to the Isaaq tribe which is a parent tribe of the Al Bu Sa’ad, or mention the Somali variation spelling of Al Bu Sa’ad as Sacad (bin) Musa. Please help out the article by adding citations rather than nominate the whole article for deletion.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 20:20, 18 July 2024 (UTC)- Hello,
- I would recommend keep. As citations 1, 3, 6 & 11 all clearly mention “Sa’ad”, either referring to the actual tribe or the tribe’s progenitor.
- Thanks,

- Draftify this is possibly a person writing about a local tribe. But, as the nom notes, none of the sources discuss the topic. It cannot be kept as an article in its current form, but it could be kept as a draft. Walsh90210 (talk) 02:08, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
- Draftify or delete - the sources don't back up any of the text, and most of the text isn't about the tribe but about things vaguely connected to them (with no evidence that the things are genuinely connected, unfortunately). Maybe a local editor would be able to find suitable offline sources, but what's here just isn't enough.StartGrammarTime (talk) 07:14, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
