Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ciocănari
let me explain what's going on here. No, the individual villages probably are not notable (all information on them can probably fit into the parent article on the commune). However, we have literally hundreds of these: Soci, Tarniţa, Varniţa, Branişte, Plopi, Ursoaia, Rădeni, Stâna, Rogoz, Rusca, etc, etc. They disambiguate among villages of the same name, are useful in identifying a village where the county is not known, etc. I appreciate Stifle's argument, but this is a clear  case - it's the easiest way to tell apart the villages, and thus serves to improve the encyclopedia, even if the letter of the disambiguation policy is being violated by those villages not having articles
