Callipolis (mythology)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Unsourced, original research, incoherent, looks like copy-and-paste Jimfbleak - talk to me?  06:33, 21 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete copied and pasted from various sources (such as this one) and Wikipedia articles (see Pella and Philosopher king) without permission or proper attribution. The subject of this article is unclear, is it the village of Kallipoli or Plato's concept of utopian city-state? --Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 09:13, 21 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete There might be some independent notability to the subject (it's a close call), and ordinarily we don't use afd for cleanup, but the article is such a mess that there is literally nothing salvageable here. Nwlaw63 (talk) 16:03, 21 September 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete I was unable to find in-depth secondary sources for the mythological subject of the article, so it seems to fail notability guidelines. The disparate meanings of the terms are already mentioned in the disambiguation page at Callipolis. Without secondary sources to develop this topic, it is best to delete the article. Because the existence of Callipolis in Greek mythology is verifiable, the mention on the disambiguation page of the mythological person should be retained. --Mark viking (talk) 20:51, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
