  • Weak keep In its current state the article is just a quote farm, and strongly resembles the hoax articles in the hoax series "allegations of apartheid." But there are some indications that the phrase itself has notability, unlike the other articles which depend mostly on systematic and intentional misrepresentation of source materials and bloc-voting on spurious grounds in AfDs. It would be nice to see this article eased out of the hands of Middle-East-focused pranksters and into the hands of editors with a) an interest in and knowledge of the subject matter, and b) a track record of editorial honesty. If and when that happens, it should probably be renamed Tourist apartheid in Cuba, and leave it to the article itself to make clear that that's a contentious but popular vernacular phrase.--G-Dett 13:37, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
