 * According to Google, this appears to be better known in English as the Tharu people's "stick dance." The disambiguation page Stick dance makes no mention for it. It's mentioned in passing in Meghauli with no mention at all in Tharu people. But a Gsearch (and Gbooks search) for Tharu stick dance yields good enough results that I think we could consider moving to Stick dance (Tharu). It's a folk dance that we seem to have missed so far and it's the sort of thing an encyclopedia should have. That said, the article is of course in terrible shape and unless someone wishes to fix it, I daresay WP:TNT might apply, until such time if ever that someone wants to create a real article on it.

 * Keep, per Shawn in Montreal's findings, and now try also:

 * Keep Yes, doncram's tidied it up to the point where it's not an embarrassment, and while the article still has no references, the topic is encyclopedic. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 01:09, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for adding it to the Stick dance disambiguation page. -- do ncr  am  00:57, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
