 * There is a Tathlith (at least with Latin characters) in Saudi Arabia just north of Yemen, but I can't find one in Yemen.  Sources are allowed to be in non-English languages. --Oakshade (talk) 18:14, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. As Oakshade noted, I think this refers to the Tathlith governorate in southwest Saudi Arabia, which has a population of about 50,000 and is prima facie notable. The citation initially given did not mention Tathlith at all, but the confusion may have come from the area having been part of one or more historical definitions of Yemen (for example, the Yemen Vilayet). I have updated the article to reflect this. —Neil 03:50, 29 October 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep. The Arabic-language Wikipedia article confirms that Tathlith is a governorate of Saudi Arabia.  --Cerebellum (talk) 00:06, 1 November 2013 (UTC)
