Deyr ü Rahba: I found the archived link to the original source , and here "Deyr u Rahba" is only mentioned as an administrative division of the Diyarbekir Eyalet in a table on page 19 under the column "Sancaqs that are not also Kurdish chiefdoms".  And there is no mention of "an Abbasid province of Diyar Bakr".  The text clearly refers to the Ottoman times.  While this only shows that the article should be rewritten, and the topic itself did exist, the article was basically forgotten after its creation in 2017; it may also require a name change to better fit the English language.  The content isn't much, so a deletion would be more valuable, unless someone magically decides to expand and rename the article.  It is also worth noting that the Ottoman province is mentioned in other articles such as Al-Rahba#Ottoman era , so Wikipedia won't lose any well-sourced information.

Aintabli ( talk ) 03:57, 3 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect to Diyarbakır Province Al-Rahba (see below response from Pilaz for reason for that target) - Fails WP:GNG , lacks significant WP:RS , and there is really nothing to merge.  Cheers, Last1in ( talk ) 13:43, 5 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Last1in , it was not actually located in the modern-day Diyarbakır province of Turkey.  It is today a part of Syria.  It should either redirect to Al-Rahba , Diyarbekir Eyalet , or Rakka Eyalet .  Honestly, the first would be much more appropriate, since the borders of administrative divisions often changed.  First, it was a part of Diyarbekir, then Raqqa, and perhaps another eyalet/vilayet in later years of the Ottomans.  Al-Rahba, on the other hand, appears to have served as the center of the Deyr-Rahbe per Al-Rahba#Ottoman era , not to mention the name similarity.  Aintabli ( talk ) 17:55, 5 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Good catch.  I was misled by the stub message that specified '...a location in Diyarbakır Province, Turkey...'  I have scratched that target from my ! vote and will update when a redir target is agreed by people who know better than I.

In its current state, fails WP:GNG due to a lack of coverage.  As evidenced by the nom, the article in its current state is not tenable since it is based on an erroneous interpretation, and there is nothing to merge, so redirecting seems the way to go.  The target redirect seems to fit since this subdivision seemed to be centered around Al-Rahba.  Last1in , would this redirect work for you?  Pilaz ( talk ) 14:42, 24 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Perfectly.  I don't know the area or its history well enough to have a good opinion, so I was hoping someone like you would make a good suggestion.
