The result was   redirect to Maharana Pratap. Delete and then redirect. Given problematic recreations, I'm going to consider protection of the redirect based on my own discretion. j⚛e deckertalk 22:04, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

Maharani Ajabde Punwar

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This article has now been created three times, twice by single purpose accounts with no other edits at all, and once by an account with only a few other edits. The first version of the article was deleted as lacking claim of significance (speedy deletion criterion A7), and the second version as a hoax (speedy deletion criterion G3), but since it has been repeatedly created, I thought it best to allow a discussion to settle the matter.

It has been suggested on the talk page that the article is in fact about a fictitious character in a television serial, although it is presented as fact. The current version of the article has no references at all, nor did the first version. The second version had only one reference, and that reference actually stated that the information was fictitious, and that there is no historical record of anything about Ajabade except the two facts that she was the first wife of Maharana Pratap and the mother of his first son. I have also searched on the internet for information about her, and everything I have found appears to relate to the television serial. A single sentence mention of her in the article about her husband is all that can possibly be justified. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 08:45, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete/redirect - The contents of the article are unreferenced. If the current contents are the limit of information then notability is not met. A redirect to the husband's article may be plausible, or a disambiguation if the other use of the name is significant as a fictional character.-- &#9790;Loriendrew&#9789;  &#9743;(talk)  15:04, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes. Delete and redirect or delete and disambiguate seems right to me. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk)
