Gopinath Jiu Temple, Fandauk

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

Searches in English and Bengali found only routine police blotter coverage of a petty theft from the temple in 2017, and the arrest the next day of the miscreants believed responsible. All we know about this run-of-the-mill place of worship from reliable sources is that it had at least 5 brass idols, 1 stone idol, the equivalent of about US$14 in cash, and a pair of cymbals. Such is not sufficiently significant attention by the world at large and over a period of time to justify a stand alone Wikipedia article about the temple.

 * Weak Delete - The robbery is more notable than the building, but at least there are some decent sources. It is also disappointing how bad the creator's draft was - for example the 17:30 30 August 2021 version says "The tradition of this temple is 100 of years old." But one of the sources says that a "hundred year old stone idol of Vishnu had been stolen".  I wish there were a relevant article where we could put this information - but I cannot find one. -- Toddy1 (talk) 12:08, 21 March 2023 (UTC)
