Dolgow[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

completely composed of original research; I'm not finding any information on this spelling of the name, I do see a few people with this last name, but nothing on the history. To summarize, my concerns lie within verifiability, original researach and for that matter notability. Go Phightins! 02:15, 6 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

~~Delete~~ Redirect to Wustrow, Lower Saxony per Yngvadottir. Pyotr Dolgov has a Der Spiegel reference titled "Pjotr Iwanowitsch Dolgow", but Wikipedia is not a German dictionary. There appears to be at least one place in Germany called Dolgow,[1][2] but nobody's written an article about it. Clarityfiend (talk) 06:23, 6 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Dolgov? I don't have strong opinions but it's a possibility that is used with variant spellings of some names. --Colapeninsula (talk) 09:41, 6 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep but redirect to Wustrow, Lower Saxony, where the village referred to is a component of the town. It is possible that one or more articles will be added in future on people with this surname, or that the village will be found worthy of a freestanding article, so this should be preserved for context then, but currently I see insufficient reason for creating the village article so the town is the next logical redirect target.

Delete: The only bit of information in the article actually pertaining to this article is that Dolgow is the German spelling of Dolgov. Firstly, this is self-evident in German orthography (can you think of any other way to spell Dolgov in German?). Secondly, this piece of information belongs in two places only: in an article about any place called Dolgov, if it was historically or otherwise significantly referred to in German; and in a general article about the German spelling of Slavic toponyms. הסרפד (Hasirpad) [formerly Ratz...bo] 05:35, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
