Kevalya Dham

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

An article with just one line and no reference. There is no reason for it to be on Wikipedia. Rahuljain2307 (talk) 15:42, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Articles for deletion/Log/2012 December 18.  Snotbot   t &bull; c &raquo;  16:00, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment: According to the article, Kevalya Dham is a village, and thus (if I understand correctly) inherently notable and automatically kept if one reference is found. However, according to Google Maps, Kevalya Dham is a temple (which explains the Jainism navbox on the page), not a village, so different criteria apply. הסרפד (Hasirpad) [formerly Ratz...bo] 03:50, 19 December 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete Wikipedia cannot have an article on any subject unless it has at least one third-party reliable source per WP:V. This applies whatever the subject matter of the article is. This article does not cite any sources and a Google search doesn't produce anything I would consider reliable. Hut 8.5 11:39, 24 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete: After much searching online, I conclude that Kevalya Dham seems to a village indeed (or perhaps a temple complex, but not one temple), but I could find nothing but crowd-sourced info. Rishabha, incidentally, mentions one of the temples there. הסרפד (Hasirpad) [formerly Ratz...bo] 00:09, 26 December 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm pretty sure it's not a village actually. The only places I could find that explicitly said it was a village were Wikipedia and Wikipedia mirrors. The original version of the article (which was removed for copyvio issues) said nothing about it being a village. The claim was added some time later by an editor doing cleanup who seems to have assumed it was a village. Hut 8.5 10:45, 26 December 2012 (UTC)
