The result was keep. The main argument of the nominator is that this zoo doesn't exist. It has been demonstrated that it does. However, there hasn't been a lot of discussion about its notability. No prejudice against a speedy renomination if someone wishes to discuss its notability. (non-admin closure) Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:24, 21 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Bestzoo

Possible hoax. I can find no sources to prove existence. I am saying hoax because of the title. Best Zoo is probably just implying that some zoo is the best. Gordonrox24 | ^Talk 01:56, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment It doesn't appear to be a hoax. This is the first hit in a Google search. However, I don't understand Dutch, so I can't really say much more. Zagalejo^^^ 06:54, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Here's the article from the Dutch Wikipedia. The zoo seems to be mentioned in this travel guide. And some of these news results might be relevant. (But again, I don't understand Dutch.) Zagalejo^^^ 06:56, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

http://www.bestzoo.nl/ is the website of this zoo. It does exist, is really called Best Zoo (since the city is called Best). I don't see any reason for deleting the page. Michaelfan—Preceding undated comment added 09:33, 14 July 2009 (UTC).[reply]

Speedy Keep. Very notable zoo, seems like the nominator only thought it was a hoax because of the word "Best" but "Best" is the name of the town. Please remove this nomination. 174.153.175.72 (talk) 10:25, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Is there anyway to get a translation of those pages? They would be helpful.--Gordonrox24 | ^Talk 12:20, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep based on the nomination. BestZoo seems to be a small zoo in the village Best in the Netherlands as part of a group named Zodiac Zoos, a group which includes other small zoos. Rubenescio (talk) 21:23, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
