Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Birote
The article is about a place or adminstrative division (current and historical versions of the article differ on this point) of a type which we generally regard as notable under  or . However, the article does suffer in large measure from the defects specified by the nominator, though much of this seems to have been introduced over the last three months by an new and over-enthusiastic editor who has been concentrating on editing this and a few closely related articles. Having said that, the state of http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Birote&oldid=516487537 the article when he started editing it was not at all good. While I think it may be a good idea to search through current and old versions of the article for any material that can be properly sourced and salvaged (the sourcing is mostly hopeless, but editors may have been working from local knowledge, some of which might be verifiable from reliable sources), it may well be necessary - at least for now - to stub the article and be prepared to start again. And finally, another complicating point - there seems to be another article on the administrative division at Berote Kalan, which however seems to be a stub with only primary sources
