I do not see how a settlement is notable. It has one sentence, and cites no sources. Minecrafter0271 (talk) 22:08, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

I now agree with Puddleglum2.0 in that we should draftify and notify the author. Cheers. Minecrafter0271 (talk) 18:58, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Draftify and notify the author. Unsourced article about a tiny settlement with no information at all besides the fact that it is a settlement, however, it could be expanded and worked on. Puddleglum  2.0   02:00, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep a populated place per WP:GEOLAND, I have added two sources about the schools, but people clearly live there and it was mentioned in the 1962 Census. SportingFlyer  T · C  03:36, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep per SportingFlyer. Senegambianamestudy (talk) 14:59, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep agree with what SportingFlyer said. See for example, Ežeriekai, one source, very few people live there, yet we have an article about it. I don't agree with draftifying. It looks complete. And if you say oh we will have a lot of articles and the Wikipedia server will be slow etc etc, you should not worry about this.-SharʿabSalam▼ (talk) 23:46, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep If this was in the UK or USA then it wouldn't be here. Draftify? What! That's just back door deletion. I'm don't think I'm going to travel through this place or live there next week but someone is and they are going to wonder why abandoned villages in the UK?US are on Wikipedia but this place isn't. Thanks to user:Pontificalibus and user:MIDI who have worked on this for ten years and the editors above who are ensuring it doesn't get deleted.Victuallers (talk) 09:45, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep Although I am dubious about the location on maps and the fact this doesn’t tally with mentions in documents, the census is sufficient to satisfy WP:V that there is or was a settlement of this name in Kitui County with a sizeable population.---Pontificalibus 16:48, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
