Khaneh (Persian placename)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Is this a disambiguation page? If so, where are the valid links? The Banner talk 21:37, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
 * comment Even not exactly disambiguation, but it is IMO a valid search term, because there are quite a few placenames named Khaneh something or Something Khaneh, which may be confusing to an English reader. Staszek Lem (talk) 21:45, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
 * If against separate page, then merge to Khana (disambiguation), a spelling variant. Staszek Lem (talk) 21:45, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

 * I am not wild about "search" pages, but rather than a disambiguation page this appears to be trying to be a set index page. --Bejnar (talk) 07:19, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
 * It might be if it indexed anything! Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 08:13, 1 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete. I support the deletion, but the 3 pages that redirect here (Khanah, Khane, Khaneh) will have to be taken to RfD. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 08:13, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Is there a reason you would oppose deleting the redirects per WP:G8 should this be deleted? -- Tavix ( talk ) 17:37, 1 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete, this certainly is not a valid disambiguation page. Having a page of "Khaneh something or Something Khaneh" would be in violation of WP:PTM, unless it can be shown via sourcing that the place is also known simply as "Khaneh". -- Tavix ( talk ) 17:37, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete so Khaneh means habitation/house in Persian, and can be latinized several ways, that may belong in Wiktionary but not here. As would a similar article about how toun, ton and town may be parts of placenames in English-speaking places. Deletion is proper without prejudice to someone creating an equivalent Persian article to List of generic forms in place names in the United Kingdom and Ireland if sources permit (which they probably do) but not having search links like the current article.

 * comment -- I am baffled. There are quite a few articles such as Llan (placename). WHy persian one is up to deletion? Staszek Lem (talk) 01:00, 3 May 2018 (UTC)
