This article fails WP:V. As per previous AfDs, "Gazetteer of the United Arab Emirates" is not a reliable source and all I see is mirror copies of this Wikipedia article online and it is not a notable settlement. Pkbwcgs (talk) 08:20, 22 October 2018 (UTC)

- Comment. However, please consider wp:CONSONANTS, which suggests that Hadhf is super-important. --Doncram (talk) 17:42, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
- @Doncram: Just because it has four consonants, it doesn't mean that it is notable. Pkbwcgs (talk) 16:34, 28 October 2018 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- Is this the same place as Hadf in Oman? Because that's where the coords point to, and that article says it is under some sort of condominium with the Emirates. pinging user:Alexandermcnabb. SpinningSpark 19:38, 29 October 2018 (UTC)
- @SpinningSpark: Possibly and the coordinate could have been plotted inaccurately compared to Hadf. However, the article says it is a settlement in Ajman which is in UAE so the article is so inaccurate. Regards. Pkbwcgs (talk) 20:00, 29 October 2018 (UTC)
- @SpinningSpark: @Pkbwcgs: Hiya! Agh. Just agh. Okay, so Ajman and Oman jointly administered this territory until the border was finalised, when Hadf (a tiny farming community of highly dubious notability) and Sinadil (one of the few Carter Creations that got rescued, mostly due to the good offices of his sparkiness) which is next to it ended up on the 'other side of the fence'. I nipped over there a few weekends ago to try and work out what was happening there (when we were debating Sinadil and other Carterstubs in the area, SS!). Google lassos both together as 'Hadf', I'd have said Sinadil was the noteworthy human settlement and the farming area of Hadf would be a mention on the Sinadil page, but I'll leave that call to you gents. Hadf existeth and is in Oman. Hadhf can go or become a redirect, IMHO. For students of sublime irony, Hadf is Arabic for deletion! Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 03:16, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
- In that case redirect to Hadf. The notability of the latter is a separate issue, but would likely survive an AfD per WP:GEOLAND as it is a populated place and presumably legally recognised as there is an inter-country agreement concerning it. SpinningSpark 08:12, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
