Looking at http://wikimapia.org/9191471/Samari-A-tiny-village-of-district-sitamarhi this map (which seems to have been tagged by the creator of the Wikipedia article), Samari could be a misspelling of https://online.omms.nic.in/ASPNet/citizens/DG/05DVC/CensusStatus.aspx?state=BR&district=33&block=7&reportLevel=3 Simari (a village in the Dumra block shown in the map). Anglicization of Hindi words is somewhat complex in nature, and (|assuming good faith) it is possible that the creator of the article felt that the spelling "Samari" is more reflective of the pronunciation of the village's name in Hindi. Such examples are quite common - for example, Jhumri Tilaiya is often anglicized as http://www.google.co.in/search?q=%22Jhumri+Talaiya%22 Jhumri Taliya or http://www.google.co.in/search?q=%22Jhumri+Telaiya%22 Jhumri Teliya. There's another village called Simari in the https://online.omms.nic.in/ASPNet/citizens/DG/05DVC/CensusStatus.aspx?state=BR&district=33&block=13&reportLevel=3 Riga block (but this seems to be inconsistent with the location shown in the map). A very remote possibility is that Samari could be a local short name for the https://online.omms.nic.in/ASPNet/citizens/DG/05DVC/CensusStatus.aspx?state=BR&district=33&block=5&reportLevel=3 Samarmahisautha village. In any case, it's just a one line article - it can be recreated easily with the proper spelling
