The result was   Procedural close. This should not be at AfD. Seems to be an actual place called Andugulapadu. (non-admin closure) Natg 19 (talk) 00:40, 22 January 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment. The nominator's concern can be fixed with a page move and a redirect, not deletion. WP:FIXTHEPROBLEM applies. • Gene93k (talk) 16:10, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Kothapalem. We already have an article for this village. The Kothapalem page may have to be moved since there are at least three villages by this name in India. • Gene93k (talk) 17:08, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Move to Andugulapadu. I'm changing my comment after a closer look at available sources. Some sources call the place Andugula Kothapalem. The existing Kothapalem article appears to be a different village in the same district. Andugulapadu with a possible redirect from Kothapalem, Vinukonda seems to be the option of least confusion. • Gene93k (talk) 18:12, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep -Move to Andugulapadu -Firstly, it should be discussed on article's talk page or related WikiProject talk page not at AFD (see also, WP:BEFORE). Coming to the existence and validity of these two village names, "Andugulapadu" does exist and article should be moved to the correct title. I'm pretty much sure creator meant this village, as all what they've written about village perfectly matches with Andugulapadu and there surprisingly are no other villages named "Andugulapadu" in India. The other article, "Kothapalem", a village in Guntur district in Andhra Pradesh, does not exist. There are however at least eight other villages named "Kothapalem" that exists in the same state but in other districts . Fixing both article, please move this one to "Andugulapadu" leaving no redirect. is requested to withdraw nomination in lights of presented facts and improvements to the article and to save the community time. Thank you.  Anupmehra  - Let's talk!  16:19, 16 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm uncertain about the other village. That may or may not exist or have been renamed (officially). Anupmehra  - Let's talk!  18:22, 16 January 2015 (UTC)
