East Kanpur

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Fails the first criterion of WP: GEOLAND, that is to say it has no mention on the websites of Registrar General and Census Commissioner, Government of India and Government of Uttar Pradesh, so in all probability isn't a legally recognized place.

Plus, the article is unreferenced, contains an enormous amount of Original Research, the content is largely false, as both sides of Kanpur come under Kanpur Municipal Corporation, Kanpur Nagar district and Kanpur division.

Also, thanks to DreamLinker for letting me know about the article(s). Regards, SshibumXZ (Talk) (Contributions). 19:08, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment I found one potential link on Google books that dates to 1690, and more for "East Cawnpore".  There is also the issue of the dozens of incoming links that the nomination hasn't considered, which is WP:BEFORE B5.  Also, I found a related AfD at WP:Articles for deletion/West Kanpur.
