Yellow Fever Vaccination Centers in India

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Directory / how-to page. There are already relevant pages such as Carte Jaune and Yellow fever vaccine; if someone wanted to write Yellow fever in India that might be worth keeping, but this isn't it. Hairhorn (talk) 15:31, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - Although I appreciate the author's efforts, going into detail about the vaccinations centers and where they are and how to contact them is not necessary. I don't think there would be a way to improve this article to Wikipedia requirements. SwisterTwister   talk  21:47, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
 * I have written an article User:Drbkmurali/Yellow fever in india Drbkmurali (talk) 09:55, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
 * It is true that Wikipedia is not a directory, but wikipedia does allow lists like List of hospitals in India and List of Hospitals in Nagpur and list of hospitals in every city.Medical information list should be encouraged, These are very important lists for travellers to africa and south america where yellow fever is prevalent. yellow fever has no cure! This information can save lives!moreover the hyperlinks on the list of places do not lead to the information on where they are and how to contact them. They just direct the reader to more information that is available on wikipedia.I have made some improvements.I think the article can be improved.Drbkmurali (talk) 03:42, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment "Centers in India that issue yellow card" needs to be removed which violates WP:NOT. Secret account 15:20, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Keep The article was moved to Yellow Fever in India while this discussion was open. The new article could use more sources but is clearly encyclopedic and notable. --MelanieN (talk) 22:42, 4 February 2013 (UTC)
 * In what way is it notable? No significant changes were made when the page was moved: it's a directory and a listing of regulations. It also notes that Yellow fever is not prevalent in India... so why have a page on it? Hairhorn (talk) 02:17, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete Fails WP:NOTHOWTO. At the moment the page reads like a medical health guide for non-Indians intending to travel to India. It probably would've been better to remove the prose and rename the original page List of yellow fever vaccination centers in India rather than Yellow Fever in India. Having said that, the list itself hasn't been referenced and probably would've failed WP:NOTDIR. Given that yellow fever is only prevalent in Africa and South America, I don't see a need for this page. It'd be similar to having an article named Yellow fever in America or Yellow fever in Russia; slightly redundant. Funny  Pika! 22:41, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment I agree that the move was appropriate and that the new article should be kept as this is an extremely important topic in epidemiology. I hope this helps. With regards, AnupamTalk 04:18, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
