Moldavanka, Kazakhstan

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Despite my efforts, I was unable to find any reliable reference in English, Romanian or Russian to such a settlement on the territory of present Kazakhstan. The source is the article is a head of a cultural association with no clear expertise, and the settlement may be a result of a confusion. Note that the same source misspells the name of another settlement (Basarabka instead of Bessarabka) and is apparently unaware the name of that settlement changed in 1993.

 * Comment Bessarabka was renamed to Saryqobda in 1993. Maybe this AfD can be an opportunity to find the current name of Moldavanka or whether it still exists or not with the help of more users. Super   Ψ   Dro  15:29, 27 October 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete: unfortunately, I can't find a single source to indicate that this settlement ever existed; I've tried to search for Moldovanka, Aktobe and Moldovanka, Kazakhstan in Russian with no use. If it was renamed, then it should have an official document indicating so, but I cannot find any evidence that it ever existed at all. Also, Moldovanka apparently just translates to Moldavian in Russian.Gorden 2211 (talk) 04:17, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete per Gorden 2211 & the nom's searches; I also got no hits for such a place in Kazakhstan on GeoNames. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 03:32, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
