The article has been unsourced since Feb 2007. After 15 years, I think a deletion discussion is appropriate. Coin945 (talk) 08:50, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

• Speedy keep, the nominator does not propose a valid WP:DEL-REASON. The nominator does not say which notability guideline that this article fails to meet. SailingInABathTub (talk) 10:21, 13 April 2021 (UTC)
• {{strikethrough|Speedy keep all of Coin945's AfDs from today as a procedural matter. Coin945 has nominated 72 articles in a short space of time with a questionable rationale ("long-term lack of sourcing" -- see WP:NEXIST) and no indication of WP:BEFORE, with {{noping|Uncle G}} finding that a number of them can have their notability confirmed on literally the first page of Google results. This is not something the relatively small group of people who work AfD can realistically handle. Vaticidalprophet 11:06, 13 April 2021 (UTC)}}

• Merge to Kalinga (Mahabharata). We do not have enough here to justify a free standing article, and one academic article does not change that fact.John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:22, 13 April 2021 (UTC)
• Merge with Kalinga (Mahabharata): no need for separate article, should be merged CommanderWaterford (talk) 16:27, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
• Merge, with Dantapuram as both articles describe the same place. SailingInABathTub (talk) 14:18, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
• Merge to Kalinga (Mahabharata). as per all. Sanketio31 (talk) 17:23, 17 April 2021 (UTC)
• Merge, as has been said above; no independent notability seems to be present here. jp×g 04:59, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
