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: 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

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.
