Was a contested draft without improvement. No indication this is a legally recognized place, fails WP:GNG. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 11:39, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. All Ukrainian villages are notable as actual or potential battlefields. See the corresponding article in the Ukrainian Wikipedia and expand using those references and text. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 19:24, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Hi. Thanks for those. The first and second appear to be about a different Kocheriv, in the Radomyshl Raion, not this one in the Zhytomyr Raion. And the third doesn't give a specific location.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 08:39, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There is only one village with that name. It is the one from former Radomyshl Raion. In 2020 there was a reform of raions, Zhytomyr oblast went from having 23 to 4. Now it is in Zhytomyr Raion. https://www.zhitomir.info/news_192685.html

Third link does list populated places along the evacuation route. So it is the same village when following the map. Ceriy (talk) 12:31, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The corresponding uk-wiki article gives the KATOTTH code as UA18040450200037286, which is evidence of legal existence. Let’s be cautious with deletions of Ukrainian place articles: there is confusion due to recent reorganization, and lack of resources because the Ukrainian government’s geographical databases seem to be offline due to the Russian invasion. —Michael Z. 17:13, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Appears to be a separate, recognised settlement, so meets WP:GEOLAND. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:14, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
