The result was keep. Location meets GEOLAND, and a necessary clean up of the article can be handled outside of AfD (non-admin closure) Britishfinance (talk) 23:26, 20 July 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep. Clearly exists and is a recognised village. We keep all officially recognised settlements per WP:GEOLAND. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:11, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
 * keep I have found this village in 2011 census, which clearly establishes this as a village meriting an article. Mangoe (talk) 14:43, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Note that disambiguation is going to be in order as there is another Baragam in a different region which collects most of the hits for this place name. Mangoe (talk) 18:27, 13 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete. While the subject matter is worthy, the article is written so poorly that it should not be on Wikipedia.  It does not follow the Wikipedia Manual of Style, has numerous typos on every line indicating that the writer is not familiar with the basic rules of the English language, and is vastly under-referenced to the point of not being trustworthy.  Articles like this one are the type that give Wikipedia a bad reputation. Ira Leviton (talk) 15:44, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
 * AfD is not cleanup. All we're here to do is assess the notability of the topic, not the quality of the article. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:48, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep - This is an actual place and seems to meet notability guidelines. As stated above, AfD is not cleanup. --  Dane  talk  19:16, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
