Balsindesh

 * — (View AfD)

No such republic exists in the world, the article shows places from current exsiting countries as a part of the said republic, no verifiability, no fact. Article is purely spam and political propaganda voldemortuet 18:13, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per in which the creator appears to admit that this article is aspirational, expressing a hope that the country described might exist in the future, rather than descriptive of a current country or even an organized group seeking the creation of such a country. The creator might be counseled to describe the hopes of a portion of the population to reorganize politically along the lines described, if that is indeed a desire of a notable political opinion, but that's different from writing an entire "as if" article.

 * Speedy delete as either a hoax, an advocacy piece, or a speculation about future events. Although these may not fall within the ordinary speedy deletion criteria, keeping an article like this around for the full five day AfD period would tend to damage Wikipedia's reputation as a reference source. --Metropolitan90 04:31, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy, speedy Delete As a complete hoax. Take it from me, as a grad student in international studies with a focus on this region of the world; this is not a real country and the area discussed remains very much a part of Pakistan.  Get this trash off of the Wikipedia.  --The Way 07:29, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete, per WP:SNOW, fails, well, about every policy, probably even policies on road names and Pokemon characters. Articles about notable proposed countries or secession movements are OK, but this is just made up, only 1 ghit: WP. BTW, nuke any redirects, too, like BALSINDESH - Republic of Balochistan & Sindh Tubezone 11:25, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
