Sainik House

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable building in a notable town. Article creator has reverted a redirect to Hanswar and reverted removal of settlement infobox on an article about a building. Unreferenced, and not a single mention of it online in WP:Reliable sources. Prod contested by article creator without comment. OnionRing (talk) 11:39, 6 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Comment, this may not be a hoax, there may indeed be a "Sainik House" located in Hanswar. For example, Sainik Rest Houses are guest houses for ex-servicemen and are found throughout India, here are some references - "Sainik Rest House" from Indian Govt Dept of Ex-Servicemen Welfare, "Sainik Rest Houses in all over India", "Sainik Rest Houses", nevertheless, this article should be a delete, as this does not meet WP:GNG with no notable sources found.Coolabahapple (talk) 20:31, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete Agree with Coolabahapple Uncletomwood (talk) 21:33, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete It may not be a hoax but it has nothing to do with the army or the actual Sainik Rest Houses. This appears to be the house of the editor who uploaded the photograph too. As one who has seen Sainik rest houses I can tell you that the facade is not what you'd expect. Just look at the spamming on yellow pages by someone with the same name as the editor here. It's apparently the house of a local cement trader whose business is named Sainik Traders. I think a SNOW delete would be appropriate here. &mdash; Spaceman  Spiff  06:58, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
 * agree, it is suspicious that the article creator is Shabeehanswar and a contact person at the above yellow pages link is shabee ahmad so looks like a case of WP:PROMOTION. Coolabahapple (talk) 09:44, 8 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Comment see also Articles for deletion/Fine Fair Shopping Centre, similar article started by same editor. OnionRing (talk) 09:54, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
