Rabia City
A verifiable but non-noteable tract of land in Karachi, Pakistan. The Google test presents 219 results, the top two being Wikipedia. The remaining articles are links to real-estate sites, definitions of "Rabia City", lists of bus routes and other local information, or unrelated links. Karachi makes no mention of this neighborhood, and Gulistan-e-Jauhar makes cursory mention of it three times. Aside from being a large residential neighborhood, it appears to have no specific notability. Per WP:LOCAL, this article contains none of the "should have" content, consisting only of "should not have" content. Compare this page to Napier Road, another neighborhood in Karachi, which makes a specific argument for its notability. Consequentially 05:27, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep verifiably real and I'm sure someone would vote to keep every school in the place, too. Carlossuarez46 03:54, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete I see nothing of encyclopeidc value. Pehaps mention it at the Karchi article. Cheers, :) Dlohcierekim  13:25, 7 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep It is a populated residential area, I don't see why it is less notable than any of the other place articles. I think instead of deleting the article, a local tag and some time may remedy the situation. If in a few weeks the article is unchanged, I may vote diffently. HighInBC (Need help?

 * Comment: Did you try searching in Urdu? I'd imagine you'd get more results (and more relevant results) than searching in English. Andrew Levine 17:00, 7 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Ok, does anyone out there know Urdu? HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 17:04, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes. Andrew Levine 17:24, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Neat, that is a good thing to know. HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 17:27, 7 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment Really hard to say with this one. If this is a place (or will be a place) where residents/businesses cite as their address - i.e. (in Arabic, of course) 123 Karachi St, Rabia City, Karachi, Pakistan - then I'd say keep.  But right now, I'm not sure if it even fits that criteria.  --Oakshade 03:13, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep real place, verifiable and populated; it may even have lots of (notable?) schools in it (schoolaholics take note). Carlossuarez46 18:26, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Schools, and by this rumor, another thing. --Oakshade 15:53, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge with Gulistan-e-Jauhar. It seems to be a project by some builder, not notable enough to deserve a separate article. utcursch | talk 13:25, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. I don't agree that an article about a neighborhood should be kept only if the name is used in postal addresses.  As HighInBC points out, we have other such articles (e.g., Turtle Bay, Manhattan). JamesMLane t c 07:10, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Looks like an Advetisement to me. Either delet or merge as per User:Utcursch. --Marwatt 17:32, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per Dlohcierekim. Todd661 08:48, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
