The result was withdrawn, speedy redirect to Shub Kola. No point keeping this open for deletion when there's a better article to redirect it to. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 22:36, 17 March 2019 (UTC)

Can't find any non-Wiki-mirror sites confirming this place exists. The NGA GeoNames database is negative for both spelling variants given in the article, and the Persian name as well. No book mentions of either name, not even trivial ones. I know it's not 100% reliable, but there's no Google Maps results either. This has been unsourced since it was created in 2008 by an editor with exactly one edit, and in the complete absence of sources, I'm tempted to believe it was a hoax. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 11:34, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment I think the problem is the article creator used an odd transliteration into English. Searching the Farsi name it does indeed show up on Google maps as ‘Shoub Kola’, so it’s not a hoax. There are plenty of hits for “شوبکلا” so no doubt it exists. Mccapra (talk) 11:57, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
