They exist, but I wasn't coninced that they meet WP:ORG or WP:GNG (lathough it seems like something which should be notable). Has been tagged for notability for over 7 years; hopefully we can now resolve it. Sending WP:APPNOTE to {{u|KrakatoaKatie}}, {{u|Optim}}, {{u|Tameamseo}}. Boleyn (talk) 12:32, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

Keep: The organisation's website is not linked in the article, it is [http://www.africanfront.org/index.php this one]. They claimed "millions of supporters". From the website it looks as if the organisation ceased around 2003/2004. A number of references found in books: mostly list entries and citations of the AUF's publications, but there is also "The idea of creating the AU [ African Union ] was revived in the mid-1990s as a result of the efforts of the African Unification Front." {{cite book|last1=Telò (ed.)|first1=Professor Mario|title=Globalisation, Multilateralism, Europe: Towards a Better Global Governance?|url=https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=ntn6AgAAQBAJ&pg=PT452&dq=African+Unification+Front&hl=en&sa=X&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=African%20Unification%20Front&f=false|date=2014|publisher=Ashgate Publishing, Ltd|isbn=9781472405388|page=Section 2.1}} It appears to have had important influence in its time: Noyster (talk), 11:13, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
Keep. While most searches return little, as Noyster points out, a search on Books returns quite a few credible sources. The article definitely needs work, however. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 13:19, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
