The result was keep. Seems like this is a case of an article naming error. No other concerns were listed, thus this is a keep but I'll move the article to the correct name that has been pointed out. If other concerns exist, please renominate at AfD. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 08:19, 25 August 2016 (UTC)

Zhyolty Yar Airport

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The reference used to create this was wikitravel, which is not a reliable source. A detailed search of airport databases reveals that there is no such airport of this name and that there is no ICAO code. The actual airport in this region is called Birobidzhan Yuzhniy Airfield, with the code RU-0123.

Here is the database results http://www.openaip.net/airports?apttype_type_filter=All&country_filter=All&name_filter=Zhyolty+Yar David. moreno 72    13:29, 3 August 2016 (UTC)


 * If you search for "Zhelty Yar" here, you get Birobidzhan Yuzhniy Airfield. So it's an alternate transliteration of another name for the same airfield. Suggest we move it to Birobidzhan Yuzhniy Airfield and keep the redirect. Acer (talk) 13:55, 3 August 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Definitely seems to be talking about the Birobidzhan Yuzhniy Airfield, which would be a more appropriate page title. And while Zhelty Yar definitely seems to be something, Zhyolty Yar does not seem to exist in any other source, reliable or not. So I'd be in favor of a rename w/o redirect. I'm also going to go ahead and add some stats of Birobidzhan Yuzhniy Airfield to this page, feel free to let me know if you disagree with this.  " Pepper "  @ 04:33, 8 August 2016 (UTC)
