This is mentioned at Tamale, Ghana#Sister_cities and Louisville, Kentucky#Sister_cities. But it is just a fact, not a topic for an encyclopedia article. Walt Yoder (talk) 01:51, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Most of the article consists of just empty words. Not enough content to justify a separate article. Tutwakhamoe (talk) 02:01, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Tutwakhamoe. The article barely talks about what the cities have done together! JML1148 (talk | contribs) 04:48, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Walt YoderThe article is relevant. The cities have done quite a lot together, and @JML1148 is right that the article has not said much about what the cities have done together. So, more content shuld be added, so that the deletion notice is revoked. This particular sister city relationship has built infrastructure, offered scholarships, undertook yearly exchange programs and regular visits. @Tutwakhamoe has a point that more content should be added. So let's add more content and remove it from the delete notice. This sister city relationship has stood for nearly 50 years. I think it is quite relevant. Let's allow a few weeks for more content to be added. Ihikky (talk) 12:37, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Building infrastructure, offering scholarships, participating in student exchanges and having foreign visits are ALL WP:ROUTINE event, there is not much things about the sister city relationship between Tamale and Louisville that sets them apart from the sister city relationship between other cities. Considering sister city relationship between even larger cities don't even have their articles, I'm not so optimistic about how this one is somehow notable enough in source coverage to pass WP:GNG. Tutwakhamoe (talk) 14:33, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I concur. The sources and detail is just WP:ROUTINE, and there doesn't seem to be anything notable about the relationship @Ihikky: If you have anything else that can be added, please do so in the next few days. AfD notices also cannot be removed until the discussion has ended. JML1148 (talk | contribs) 06:33, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
