Human appearance in India
AfDs for this article: 
 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

There are several reasons: a) The scope of this article is not defined. b) Vague term. Human appearance usually refers to physical human appearance like skin color, height and does not usually refer to clothing and ornament. c) Redundant topic. Clothing in India is already covered by the article Indian dress. d) No article with similar heading or scope exists in Wikipedia. One wouldn't see an article on Human appearance in Russia because the heading itself is too vague. e) The article is currently orphaned and therefore, serves little purpose.

 * Delete per nom or merge with Indian dress if there is anything that can be merged (perhaps the ornamentation?). &mdash; LinguistAtLarge • Talk  04:01, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment. Looking at the title, I assumed it was about when humans first appeared in India. &mdash; goethean &#2384; 20:32, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Title is really vague. I wasn't even sure what the article was about until I took a look at the page. This article doesn't cover anything that hasn't been covered by Indian dress. -- vi5in [talk] 20:34, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
