[edit] Arvumi

This is all rubbish. The annoyomous user added these phrases, ARVUMI is the changma word for Bandorbon (Bandarban) Hill District, a part of KORPOS MOHOL (KARPAS MAHAL)., which is nothing more than some nonsense. I think that the page should be deleted. -Mr Tan 12.27, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Tagged, but not put on VfD. Several in this series[1]. Niteowlneils 18:53, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

• Comment: Bandorbon and Korpos Mohol indicate they're parts of the Chittagong area, a major metropolitan area of Bangladesh. This is not nonsense; it just needs explanation and wikification. However, no evidence of notability is in these substubs. Probably these articles were the first contribution of a new user (anonymous 194.199.119.17); Please don't bite the newbies. 209.2.145.49 01:02, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)

• Given that, I suggest Expand or delete. In any language, place names are notable only if the places are shown to have encyclopedic notability. 209.2.145.49 01:02, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)

• The above two items were mine; I wasn't logged in, sorry. Barno 01:06, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)

• If they are different words for the same place, they should all be redirected to whichever is most common. Kappa 01:58, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, stubby article does not establish notability. Megan1967 07:04, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • also dictionary definition. Megan1967 07:05, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, notable geographic term. The Changma (also spelled Chakma) are a Buddhist minority in Bangladesh. What they call the region where they live is important enough for an article. The stuff about "Bandorbon (Bandarban)" and "KORPOS MOHOL (KARPAS MAHAL)" is probably an artifact of the irregular mapping of Bengali vowels into the Roman alphabet. At present this article and the related ones are substubs but there is certainly a lot to say, so leave them be. Wile E. Heresiarch 07:55, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • There are relatively few wikipedians who will cleanup and expand such articles done by annoyomous newbies. If you keep this article, who will cleanup these articles? I think that it should be deleted, but let people rewrite the article with the condition that he does not write such content anymore. Mr Tan 21:22, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
