Sankat mochan hanuman is part of name of Lord Hanumaan, and there would be millions of temples in India with this name. I think, Sankat mochan hanuman temple article is completely unnecessary and with no potential for development either.

I created the article since the temple was assosiated with blasts that occured today. Please read this BBC article. The temple has a history assosiated with it. I feel it is notable enough. If you still otherwise, fine with me. - Ganeshk (talk) 23:52, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
I admit that temple was associated with blast but in current state article doesn't provide any new inoformation not contained in the article for blast. If you think that historical aspects of temple can be elaborated upon, article can be kept, otherwise it is useless stub in my view. BBC article informs of Tulsidas's association with the temple but doesn't delve into much history either. Lastly, if article is kept, given that it can be enhanced, I would strongly urge to change the title to inclue Varanasi in it, Sankat Mochan Hanuman Temple, Varanasi.

I am a strong believer that stubs eventually expand. A one-liner article still deserves to exist. I have already added the city to the title. Thanks for understanding. - Ganeshk (talk) 00:03, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
