 * Comment. Perhaps relevant information could be found at https://ukrstat.gov.ua/ State Statistics Service of Ukraine. I'm reluctant to say that a village isn't notable. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 23:03, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment. A page for the village with more information than this one here exists on the Ukrainian Wikipedia; uk:Запорізьке (Покровський район).  Physeters ✉ 04:54, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep – per WP:GEOLAND, populated places are "typically presumed to be notable", and looking at the sources, there doesn't seem to be any doubt that this is a populated, legally recognised place. It's hard to find sources (not least because "Zaporizke" is not a unique name – there are several villages by that name in Ukraine) and some of the existing sources are pretty weak, so some cleanup is needed but I do think it is a notable topic. As an aside, I can't see that this has been declined (much less rejected) in AfC, unless there are older, deleted drafts; it was created in mainspace, draftified by an NPP patroller, and then moved back to mainspace by the draft creator.  --bonadea contributions talk 09:47, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep. Appears to pass WP:GEOLAND. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:17, 18 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Keep. The article is spare, but already has enough to demonstrate notability as a populated settlement and location of historical events. —Michael Z. 15:02, 18 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Keep: because the subject of the article is a populated place it passes WP:GEOLAND, so it notable even if the article needs some improvement. InterstellarGamer12321 ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 18:23, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep: poorly sourced, but passes NGEO. Needs a better title.  // Timothy :: talk  07:01, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete - okay, here's the issue with the above keep !votes. While they are all correct that if this was a legally recognized populated place, it would pass GEOLAND, there is not a single source which says that.  Indeed, none of the current sources even mention this location (except for the non-reliable weather link).  I could not find any information using the link provided by Eastmain (but that could be due to the language barrier).  The Ukrainian page appears to solely sourced to the weather reference.  If someone can provide a link that actually shows this is a legally recognized place, please ping me.  This is one of about 1-2 dozen articles created by this same editor, all which have the same sourcing issues. Onel 5969  TT me 01:29, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment. While the first source in the table does not mention the village per se, it does show its location on the map. The second source in the table links to a different Zaporizke located in Volnovakha Raion, Donetsk Oblast. The fourth source should link to a page on understandingwar.org, though a quick search of that site does not yield any results.  Physeters ✉ 02:35, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

 * @Onel5969 Here is a page for the village on another Ukrainian government website, albeit it is quite bare; https://decentralization.gov.ua/locality/24393  Physeters ✉ 04:50, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep: per WP:GEOLAND, and see https://gromada.info/gromada/vmyhaylivska/#1699 --Yakudza (talk) 14:25, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment. As to the name, it should be renamed to Zaporizke, Synelnykove Raion, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast and the other one to Zaporizke, Kryvyi Rih Raion, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. The hromada name is unnecessary per UAPLACE. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:52, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

 * The reason why the hromada is specified is because there are three villages called Zaporizke in Synelykove Raion. This one, which is in Velykomykhailivka rural hromada, a second one in Slavhorod settlement hromada, and a third in Mezhova settlement hromada.  Physeters ✉ 17:52, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Okay, but the other two villages don't have articles. And is there more than one village by that name in Kryvyi Rih Raion? -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:21, 25 April 2023 (UTC)
 * There is a second Zaporizke in Apostolove rural hromada.  Physeters ✉ 19:09, 25 April 2023 (UTC)
