Kasaragod Malayalam

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Largely unreferenced, unverifiable original research. At best it's a dialect of Malayalam with some local features which could be summarized in that article (if sources discuss it in eough detail). There is not enough coverage for a stand-alone article, with one of the references not even mentioning it (I cannot access the relevant pages of the two books, but it's clear that the Concise encyclopedia of languages of the world treats it as part of Malayalam if at all, not separately).

 * Delete Non-notable dialect. The only RS discussing it calls it a dialect which got its first translation from Tulu of a novel in 2014. Not enough coverage for a standalone article and nothing well-sourced enough to merge. Opencooper (talk) 01:34, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as hardly comprehensible, restart later if better formatted and available. SwisterTwister   talk  03:16, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
