Talk:Household stone implements in Karnataka

NO REFERENCES FOR THIS TOO!!
@ Jikaoli Kol, Hello!

I have created a new web page without any references. Heres why,

I happened to come across a page titled Oralu Kallu. It was created in 2009. Last modified was in 2015. Till now it didn't have any references. I looked for references. There are none reliable and accurate till now. But it has managed to survive till now.

I corrected and enlarged that page. I grouped similar tools on that page and tried to rename it with a broader name. I was unable to do so. Later I deleted the expanded information that I had contributed myself and created this new page with it. As before, no reliable references for this are available online now too!!

Could you please create a redirect from Oralu Kallu page to this article's page?

Sincerely

Proposed Deletion of Household Stone tools of Karnataka
@ James B Watson, Hello!

I shall try to address the concerns raised,

1) No evidence that any of these are peculiar to Karnataka

As I have noted on the talk page, there are almost NIL evidence, any which way available online. But the stone tools were/are a daily reality. I have tried hard researching online for referencing even before the articles creation, but without success. Documenting these articles preserves a piece of the vanishing history. The articles were part of every household(some still are) without which, as you can imagine cooking would have been impossible!

As regards to Karnataka in the Title page, I did consider India/Southern India earlier. But, that would be unbacked and far too generalized claim. By adding Karnataka, at the least I was certain of the daily reality of the region.

Would changing 'of' to 'in' the title from 'Household Stone tools of Karnataka' to 'Household Stone tools in Karnataka' be of any help for better clarity? Please advise.

2) Concerns that the topic as a whole satisfies Wikipedia's notability guidelines.

A page 'Oralu Kallu' had existed since 2009 for 7 years, which now seems to have been removed? That page was the number one link from any search engine on the topic. For better understanding the reason for creation, I add below my initial comments at the time of creating the article,

"I have created a new web page without any references. Heres why,

Hope I have addressed the concerns raised by you. I look forward to improve the article, will try even more researching to better it.
