Medeshi

I could not find any traces on the internet about this village; there are some results for medeshivalley but they seem to be irrelevant since none makes mention of this village. Itemirus (talk)  19:43, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete I would have to agree with Itemirus as such I haven't been able to find very few sources that mention it at all. --Clarkcj12 (talk) 20:22, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep and possibly rename While this is definitely not a reliable source, one of the entries on it does suggest that Medeshi is a variant name for what Google Maps shows as Midhisho, which verifiably fits most of the information in the article. And, while I can not prove it, I think it likely to be the same place as Medishe , which gets quite a lot of coverage as one of the first places to suffer aerial bombardment during a colonial war, the Somaliland campaign (1920) against Mohammed Abdullah Hassan. Seeing that Somali did not have a standardised Latin orthography until about 40 years ago and has not exactly been a common tourist destination at any time since then, some variation in placenames, particularly of smaller places, is perhaps to be expected.

 * Keep and Rename. The information above seems accurate and a move to a different spelling, perhaps with a redirect, is the right course. JodyBtalk 18:04, 20 December 2013 (UTC)
