The place does not exist. Everything named after Molotov was forcibly renamed in 1957. There are no sources, and have never been. The coords point out to a place where there is no settlement, just mountains. I tried to search (in Russian) whether such a place existed and was not successfull. There was Molotovabad in Osh Oblast, which was indeed renamed in 1957, but I am not sure this is the same thing. If we knew that such place existed and what it was renamed to, we could replace the article by a redirect, but for the time being I am unsure what the redirect target would be. The creator did not edit Wikipedia since 2009. Ymblanter (talk) 23:23, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I suppose if there's no better improvement and alternative. Pinging Wikimandia. SwisterTwister talk 04:42, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - The only place I found with this name was in Yakutsk, but even that had nothing on the map. МандичкаYO 😜 04:24, 29 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
