• Appears to be original research, was created over a redirect by a sock and the factual accuracy of this article is highly doubted. Fitzcarmalan (talk) 13:29, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak keep:: The article doesn't make many assertions, it does cite references, and does not have {{cn}}, {{fv}} {{or}} tags pointing up assertions needing better support. I don't find any discussion about this on the article's talk page. I have a concern about WP:DATED in re the article name, and I will probably raise that concern if the article survives this AFD request, Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 23:06, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep:: The topic of the article is legit. There are sources like the BBC article which mention both the Moro insurgency and the Communist NPA insurgency in the same contexts. The conflicts are definitely connected. There are sources on Gaddafi supplying and coordinating both the Communist NPA and Moro insurgents at Talk:Mathaba_News_Agency.Rajmaan (talk) 04:38, 14 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

• Keep - stubs created by an invalid sockpuppet can be deleted speedily, but proverbally, "even a broken clock tells the correct time twice a day". In this case, Rajmaan located two sources that prove a ocnnection, without any original research nor even illogical synthesis. Bearian (talk) 15:38, 22 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep based on the merits alone. The Philippines has been dealing with insurgencies since 1969, and I am of the opinion that it deserves an umbrella article. Kurtis ^(talk) 23:55, 22 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
