The result was keep and move to Drupang. As Onel5969 pointed out, this is likely a typo and there is agreement that the place is to be kept if sources exist. Sources exist for "Drupang", so moving there is the correct outcome. SoWhy 12:11, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This unsourced page contains no indication of significance or notability. It's also in almost the exact same state it was in during the last AfD a year ago, in which no argument was made to keep the page. Eventhorizon51 (talk) 21:16, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. It's a populated place, don't we keep those? --doncram 17:57, 29 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Does the fact that it exists and is populated automatically establish notability? The page is unsourced and the only info I could find on it merely claim its existence or give some directory info. I don't know about you, but that doesn't sound like notability to me. Eventhorizon51 (talk) 20:38, 29 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete unless someone can find a reliable source showing this place exists and is officially recognized. Clarityfiend (talk) 01:33, 3 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment – There is a village with similar name in the district of the above village – Drupang Gaon (gaon is a Hindi term which means village). There's also a village in another state – Durpang forest camp – which has partial matching name. But I couldn't find an exact match. - NitinMlk (talk) 22:13, 8 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Can't find any sources to show this particular place actually exists. Which is rare. And regarding WP:GEOLAND, as Clarityfriend pointed out, it's not just that a populated place exists, but that it is officially recognized. There's a great resource for India geoplaces, Census2011. I can find no listing for a village named Durpang in this district. NitinMlk's search might show that the title for this article is simply a typo. Since there is no article currently for Drupang, Might I suggest that the nom withdraw their nomination, and we simply move the page to the correct spelling? And use NitinMlk's citation?
