Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Largest village in England

Post closure conclusion
I give up. Respecting the closure, I just attempted to make this a half decent page, by removing at least the totally unreferenced claims, but to be honest, I have got no clue what the 'keepers' want this article to be, or what prupose they think it serves. The closing admin certainly hasn't decided to enlighten us. If you take out the original research, one-man websites and general nonsense, there is no article. So for the sake of my sanity, I'm unwatching it, it can remain a stain on the pedia for drive by additions (and if you want a real laugh, go through 30 village articles at high speed, you will see all kinds of rubbish in those too sadly). By the looks of it, all this page ever was was a repository for all the places some Wikipedian at a village page decided to claim for themselves was largest (or heard it some place), and someone has misguidedly try to clear up the nonsense by explaining with their own original research why the list is nonsense. Not a single one of the villages listed here without a ref that I just removed, had any ref in their own article, most had nothing, some had just 'xyz.....said by some to be the largest'. That's so bad its unreal. So, I'm done. MickMacNee (talk) 02:35, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
