تفاحتة

Apparently, this is a Lebanese village (or so Google Translate tells me). But Google Search turns up nothing. It seems to be a good-faith contribution (albeit in Arabic), but I just can't verify it. — This, that, and the other (talk) 11:38, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
 *  Speedy Delete per A7 . "x is a village in Lebanon". That's it. No reason why this is notable whatsoever. -- Ritchie333 (talk)  (cont)   13:00, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
 * As long as the existence of this place can be verified with reliable sources, it shouldn't be deleted. Per WP:NPLACE: Cities and villages are generally kept, regardless of size, as long as their existence is verified through a reliable source. A7 does not apply, though G3 may come into play if it seems like there is nothing whatsoever with info on تفاحتة.  " Pepper "  @ 13:18, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Plus A7 doesn't apply to places, full stop - only individuals, animals, organizations and web content. I'll just go off into a corner and trout myself. -- Ritchie333 (talk)  (cont)   13:35, 13 August 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete. Search for "Tfahth, Lebanon" doesn't reveal anything. Agree with TT&tO on the good faith, but it is unverifiable. Maybe Esraahaidar will be able to find a source?  " Pepper "  @ 13:26, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete Not notable and certainly not verifiable in the slightest, shame this isn't covered by a speedy deletion criteria at the moment Seasider91 (talk) 16:51, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Rename using a title transliterated into roman alphabet, per WP:UE: "Names not originally in a Latin alphabet, as with Greek, Chinese or Russian, must be transliterated into characters generally intelligible to literate speakers of English."  Pam  D  18:54, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
 * The original title of the article was جرجوع and there is an article by that name on the ar:wiki about a village in Lebanon in the Nabatieh District, rough translation of the names seems to be Jarjoua or Jarju, bit more sleuthing by somebody not on their way to sleep should be able to find the english name for it and perhaps some more details with a spot of luck-- Jac 16888 Talk 22:32, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Searching that name on Google Maps turns up "Jarjouaa" 33.44643°N, 35.51885°W. However, what I am puzzled about it is why it was moved to a different name. — This, that, and the other (talk) 05:13, 14 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Ah, I should have thought of doing that to begin with. ar:جرجوع is the article. — This, that, and the other (talk) 01:33, 14 August 2012 (UTC)
 * The proper English title according to Arabic Wikipedia going back to here, through Nabatieh District, appears to be Jarjoo. I have moved it accordingly. I would certainly Keep the article, given it is a legitimate geographical location. Regards, — Moe   ε  16:50, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
 * My mistake, by quick research through the red links on Municipalities of Lebanon and List of cities and towns in Lebanon, the correct spelling is Jarjouh. Google seems to verify that. I've corrected the Nabatieh District article's spelling error. Regards, — Moe   ε  17:03, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
