indiscernible mess. unencyclopedic. Smite it. -- Anonymous DissidentTalk 07:11, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

  • How may I speedy delete thee? Let me count the tags: G1, G2, A1, and A7 Rackabello 07:14, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Supersonic Speedy Delete Complete and utter nonsense. Gorkymalorki 07:17, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong Keep - I don't know where the assertions that this is nonsense, no context, or failure to assert notability come from, but they're patently untrue. Does it need cleanup, yes. Deletion -- no way. As far as I can tell, people saw a massive wall of unformatted text, and opted to delete it rather than read it. I've done some cleanup on this; perhaps it will change your minds? --Haemo 07:27, 30 July 2007 (UTC) Below.
Well, according to this webpage, there is a description of this town in India. Is it possible to re-write this article? However, I am not sure whether this town passes the notability test. Moreover, it must also be taken into account that there are more than 200 google hits for this town. --Siva1979Talk to me 07:28, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
I wont reconsider unless some references are added. Sorry. -- Anonymous DissidentTalk 07:30, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong Keep added citations it is a place with a 2000 year history. Harlowraman 07:30, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete - naturally, one of the links shows it's a clear copy-vio, even with my rudimentary clean up. --07:38, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
    And after all my cleaning too :( --Haemo 07:39, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
