I'm not sure if this is a copyvio of the archived link, or if that (the only source) is a copy of this article. I can't find any other references to verify this content; there are sources for the Bangubangu language but not a Bangubangu ethnic group.

• Keep. There is WP:SIGCOV about the Bangubangu at least for a stub. A search for "les Bangubangu" in Google Books and Google Scholar gives unambiguous results for the ethnic group. Likewise a search for "the Bangubangu", although this also yields a few sources about the language. @力百: The article is a blatant copyvio, definitely not a case of circular reference. I have tagged the page for revdel, and will later add some text with sources for a stub-sized article. –Austronesier (talk) 07:24, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • You're right that there is French-language coverage, I didn't check that. With the copyvio revdel'd, this can be closed as Withdrawn. User:力百 (alt of power~enwiki, π, ν) 15:51, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
