Larissa (Homeric city)
editThe outcome of the March 2019 AfD, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Larissa (Thrace), was a consensus that Larissa (Thrace) probably did not exist, but that the fictional city of Larissa (Homeric City) could be a replacement article for this one. However, this would need an article with a different name and different content from this article. Such an article has yet to be written. Britishfinance (talk) 22:06, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

Larissa (Thrace) → Larissa (Homeric city) – Cleanup of Template:Disputed title, which is currently at WP:TfD. This is basically a continuation of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Larissa (Thrace) in February 2019. That discussion was closed as no consensus, though there was a suggestion that the title be changed and the article rewritten to focus on the scholarly disagreement about this city's location and so on. That has not come to pass. I get the impression that it would take a certain level of familiarity with the subject and the sources to do it properly.

Oppose move. This is currently consistent with several other ancient cities listed at Larissa (disambiguation)#Ancient Greek settlements. Whether the article should exist at all is a different story. No such user (talk) 13:39, 25 October 2021 (UTC)- After having glanced at the AfD, I'm striking my vote. It's not even clear if it was in Thrace. No such user (talk) 13:57, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
- Support per AFD. Although this article should possibly be redirected to some sort of "List of places described by Homer" list but I'm not sure such a redirect target exists yet, since knowledge about it is so shallow. SnowFire (talk) 23:15, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
