Gandhi nagar -Thekkalur

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Poorly sourced and poorly formatted article about a "sub-village". Neighbourhoods within larger municipalities are not "inherently" notable enough under WP:GEOLAND to be guaranteed their own standalone articles as separate topics from the main entity they're part of -- if the place can't be reliably sourced well enough to pass WP:GNG in its own right, then it should just be discussed within the article on the larger place rather than as its own standalone article, but this is relying entirely on primary sources that aren't support for notability, with not even one piece of GNG-building reliable source coverage shown at all. Thekkalur, further, only has a population of about 12,000 people, according to its article, which means it isn't large enough to have the depth of reliable source coverage that would needed to make it likely that its "sub-villages" could actually pass GNG on their own as separate topics from Thekkalur. I'd just redirect this to Thekkalur, but even the page title is improperly formatted and thus not valuable for retention -- I have no prejudice against the creation of a redirect to Thekkalur from a properly formatted version of the title, but one should not be created from this version of the title.

 * Delete - The sourcing in the article fails to establish notability nor can I find anything to substantiate notability. Searching is difficult as there appears to be many geographical locations that go by the name Gandhi Nagar.  No prejudice to recreation if reliable sources can be found to establish notability.  I agree with the nominator that a redirect from this title is not helpful. -- Whpq (talk) 15:24, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
