[edit] Zakythos
short article with little or no content lacking sufficient context. Cagey Millipede (talk) 19:00, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
- I'm going to say delete this unless it can be sourced. Article title sems to be a simple (or intentional) misspelling, and article content, what there is of it, fails WP:V without a cited ref (I can't find any). This supposed eponym is also mentioned in Flag of Zakynthos, which should be revised if the decision here is to delete. Deor (talk) 05:09, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete. No sources to show that this is an accepted alternate name for Zakynthos. Per Wikipedia:Avoid neologisms we need references that show usage. A search of Greek Google for Ζάκυνθος (in Greek letters) gets 97,600 hits. A search for Ζάκυθος gets only 10 hits, one of which is clearly a misspelling (on the home page of a Zakynthos newspaper, which is spelled properly as Zakynthos in the masthead). The unusual spelling has no support as being legitimate. EdJohnston (talk) 02:21, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
