Businesses in africa moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Businesses in africa, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

While some businesses in Africa are notable, as a whole they probably aren't. Such information could go into Economy of Africa. Relevant notability guidelines are WP:LISTN and WP:SYNTH. Sungodtemple (talk • contribs) 22:47, 22 May 2023 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Businesses in africa

Hello, 787IYO. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Businesses in africa".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. ✗plicit 23:43, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
