This article can be salvaged

Even though the author has obvious conflict of interest based on the username and is not a native speaker of English, this article is about a real village in India. The original author asserts notability because of Hindu temples in or very near the village. A quick Google shows many mentions to establish the existence of the village. I'm on a short break at work and won't be able to do any in-depth research until later in the week. I will try to help the original author improve the article to Wikipedia standards over the next few weeks. DocTree (ʞlɐʇ · cont) Join WER 16:51, 5 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

I have renominated for csd as it appeats to be a WP:COATRACK with the last half of the article dedicated to volunteers complete with hours of business. Hell In A Bucket (talk) 17:01, 5 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
Yep. You could also have added G4 as a reason. User:Gummiryal is a brand new editor. If s/he had made even a few more edits, I would concur with your nomination for speedy deletion. For now, I'll give User:Gummiryal the benefit of doubt and try to work with him(her?) to get the article fixed. I'll ensure that the promotional stuff gets removed or at least cut to acceptable with perhaps a mention of volunteerism in the village. My best guess is that the article will survive since it's about a real place but it needs a lot of work. Take care, DocTree (ʞlɐʇ · cont) Join WER 18:26, 5 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
