Yangi-Dzhol (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Completely non-notable page that does not belong in an enclclopedia. Bowsy (review me!) 11:18, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Speedy keep Villages are inherently notable; not much more to say there. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 13:01, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Speedy keep Named geographical location, of course it's notable. Why would someone want to delete an article like this? --Canley (talk) 13:16, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. The body text of the article ("Yangi-Dzhol is a village in the Naryn Province of Kyrgyzstan.") is underdeveloped, but with a map and coordinates in the infobox, the article as a whole is better than nothing. Settlements are the kind of topics which encyclopedias traditionally cover, and Wikipedia should therefore follow a lenient standard to notability for such subjects.

  • Speedy keep — as a village, inherent notability. Also, the reason for deletion was not backed up by any evidence. EJF (talk) 16:57, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep, pages don't have to be notable. But villages *are* considered notable. --Pixelface (talk) 17:00, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
