Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ali Čair
While "too short" is, indeed, not a valid reason to delete an article, I searched for a good amount of time using both "Ali Čair" and "Али Чаир" and couldn't find much potential for this to be expanded. The relevant notability guideline here is , which already sets a pretty low bar for notability: you only need to show legal recognition of a populated place. However, neither the terms "Ali Čair" nor "Али Чаир" appear on the http://www.stat.gov.mk/Publikacii/knigaXIII.pdf 2002 Macedonian census. The Macedonian-language Wikipedia has an article at :mk:Али Чаир (археолошки локалитет), but it appears to deal with an archaeological site in the Prilep area and has only one reference to an offline map. A few of the sources I found through a general web search seem to deal with that rather than the suburbhttps://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=mk&u=http://www.muzejprilep.org.mk/muzejska-dejnost/module-variations/16-frontpage-content/32-kratka-istorija-na-prilep-voved&prev=search. A machine translation of https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=mk&u=http://www.novamakedonija.com.mk/NewsDetal.asp%3Fvest%3D87141126403%26id%3D9%26setIzdanie%3D23243&prev=search this source seems to call it a neighborhood, rather than a suburb, as does https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=mk&u=http://www.zenitprilep.com.mk/arhiva/5349-2013-06-22-23-38-20.html&prev=search this source. A Google Books search for "Али Чаир" holds some promise: I found https://books.google.com/books?id=D5A6AQAAIAAJ&q=%22Али+Чаир%22&dq=%22Али+Чаир%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiKxuCL_LzMAhVL2B4KHWMUDUMQ6AEIPTAF this book titled ''Prilep and Prilep throughout history'' which appears to have a section dedicated to Али Чаир. Ultimately, however, without evidence of legal recognition, this alone isn't enough to demonstrate standalone notability. The two sources I mentioned earlier that called it a neighborhood seem to associate it with Prilep, so absent an indication that this is notable and can be expanded, I have to say redirect. Are there any Macedonian-language speakers that can help
