Is this really needed? —Croisés Majestic ^{(sur nous mars)} 00:59, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. --Golbez (talk) 13:14, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Relisting comment: somehow this discussion slipped through the cracks

Delete This is another country-subdivision-by-direction article of little value similar to Category:Country subdivisions named for direction. --JaGa^talk 18:24, 31 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
~~Keep~~. We have disambiguation pages for various entities with the same name (examples: Union County. Amazonas), I don't see why the fact that these divisions are named with a direction or location changes the fact that they are equally deserving of disambiguation. --Golbez (talk) 18:55, 31 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Central Region or Central Province is an appropriate title for a disambiguation page, since those are names that have been assigned to more than one place. "Central" by itself, however, is not the name of a place. Moreover, the title of this page makes it sound like "a central" is a type of entity, like a "county" or a "department," which is confusing and incorrect. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 19:15, 31 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
After examining Central (disambiguation) this is probably the better location for this material, iff all the entries are moved over. --Golbez (talk) 19:35, 31 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
~~Keep~~ - Nomination rational not based on any policy except WP:IDONTLIKEIT Exit2DOS ^{• Ctrl • Alt • Del} 21:36, 31 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

How about WP:INCOMPDAB? I was going to turn it into a redirect but realized that would be worthless since it's a highly unlikely search term. --JaGa^talk 22:19, 31 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Sounds good. AFD is a timesink and a Nomination Rationals that are Absolutely Useless make it even moreso. It is not for us to find & provide the reason something needs to go, that is the Nominators job. Exit2DOS ^{• Ctrl • Alt • Del} 07:46, 2 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, anything here that is ambiguous with "Central" should be included at Central (disambiguation). older ≠ wiser 16:57, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
