Speedy Keep. No reason for deletion given in the nomination, and villages are typically presumed notable per WP:GEOLAND. VQuakr (talk) 15:17, 20 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I assume the AFD nomination was due to a lack of sources. Is there any evidence that this location exists? --NoGhost (talk) 01:51, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@NoGhost: "lack of sources" is not a valid reason for deletion. To answer your question - yes; I have a query on the article talk page that pinged the article creator. VQuakr (talk) 03:35, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This place appears to be Kaithora, Jaunpur district, Uttar Pradesh, India from Google hits and the historic mention. The Census of India database is not responding at the moment, and so I can't confirm legal recognition. • Gene93k (talk) 06:04, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Correct name is Kithora where an article exists already. Ajf773 (talk) 06:23, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Ajf773: Not the same place. — Stringy Acid (talk) 06:39, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I stand corrected. Just looking at Google Maps there is not only a Kaithora and a Kithora in Uttar Pradesh, but also a Kithara and a Kaithola (which is obviously confusing). In that case my vote becomes Keep as a valid stub article. Ajf773 (talk) 06:58, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as per WP:GEOLAND, since this is a village with an officially recognized name, whose existence can be verified ([1] [2]) — Stringy Acid (talk) 06:39, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Note that there are multiple places with the name Kaithora. From the article's content, this seems to be about the one in Jaunpur, Uttar Pradesh ([3], [4]), and not the one in Madhya Pradesh as specified in the sources I linked above. — Stringy Acid (talk) 07:56, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
