Non notable rural village in Laos. There are zero sources other than a map that purports to pinpoint its location. This article could / should be a redirect to Sekong Province if not removed altogether. Michepman (talk) 21:05, 8 January 2020 (UTC)

- I can't find any kind of settlement on the coordinates referenced in the article. [1] Oakshade (talk) 03:37, 9 January 2020 (UTC)
- Comment - It may be that Google's map data is incomplete, or this is another poorly executed hoax. Michepman (talk) 03:44, 9 January 2020 (UTC)
- To be fair, there are only two decimal degrees of precision, so the village, if it exists, could be up to 1km from the listed coordinates. There is an unmarked village at 15.9143707N, 106.9519673E. And the "A" prefix is very common for villages in this part of Laos. It's listed [2] here, so unlikely to be a hoax. It's also exceptionally hard to search for. I'm officially neutral on deletion.

- 'Delete per WP:V. It's no sin not to list every possible village. When sources exist, then we can list it. Quality over quantity. Bearian (talk) 00:59, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
- Delete fails any possible SNG and GNG. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 05:26, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
