This article has only one source which explains a lot as from my search of finding information on this village, I have found nothing that can guarantee notability under GNG. We probably shouldn't have villages articles since they are too local and not every one of these places needs to have an article. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 21:32, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Clearly a recognised settlement, so passes WP:GEOLAND. We probably shouldn't have villages articles since they are too local and not every one of these places needs to have an article is basically a WP:IDONTLIKEIT argument which goes against all guidelines. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:41, 7 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Tentative delete: The 2011 census handbook for Rohtak district does mention a village called Singhpura, but not a Singhpura Khurd (which I assume is a constituent hamlet of the village mentioned in the handbook). Singhpura would pass WP:GEOLAND as an officially recognized populated place, but I don't think Singhpura Khurd would. My assumption could be wrong though since I haven't looked anywhere else. 3 kids in a trenchcoat (talk) 20:16, 7 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

  • Delete: My Google Maps analysis shows two neighboring villages less than a mile apart bearing the names Singhpura and Singhpura Khurd. However, the source that 3 kids in a trenchcoat provided us gives a very important detail, being that the total area of the village of Singhpura is 875 hectares. Measuring that area on Google Maps, it becomes only possible to reach 875 hectares once the village of Singhpura Khurd is added, along with the surrounding farmland. This proves to me that Singhpura Khurd is just a hamlet within Singhpura, and not an officially recognized village. Curbon7 (talk) 03:54, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
