This page was previously deleted under CSD, and I don't think it's current incarnation is going to fare any better. Zero indication of notability. JoelWhy? talk 12:16, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

  • Keep, verifiable, named populated place, which are almost always kept regardless of whether GNG is shown to be met, per Wikipedia's function as a gazetteer. Prior version was speedy deleted as an advertisement, which doesn't apply to the current version, nor does any other CSD category. postdlf (talk) 15:51, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
  • CommentIt may be fine to keep it now that it finally have a citation. (I removed a number of statements in the article which may have constituted advertising, which is why it's no longer a CSD candidate.) JoelWhy? talk 15:59, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
  • The fact that you were able to fix it from being promotional just by excising some POV language[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kunkeshwar&diff=498325709&oldid=498325582] means it was never a CSD candidate in the first place. postdlf (talk) 16:18, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
  • You can always fix a promotional issue by excising POV language. JoelWhy? talk 16:20, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
  • Nope. Try "Kunkeshwar is the best place on earth. No place is more beautiful, and no place provides a happier way of life. People flock from all over the globe to Kunkeshwar." Or "Foo, Inc. is a highly innovative company leading the way to the future. Come work at Foo and start an exciting career! Salaries and benefits are top of the line." The qualifying phrases "exclusively promotional" and "would need to be fundamentally rewritten" are in WP:CSD#G11 for a reason. You merely removed two adjectives and one sentence and the POV problem was fixed. postdlf (talk) 17:01, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

  • Keep places, towns, villages are inherently notable. Kunkeshwar is a major tourist shot [http://traveller.outlookindia.com/destination.aspx?id=831], [http://www.maharashtra-tourism.com/pilgrimage/kunkeshwar.htm] --Redtigerxyz Talk 06:55, 20 June 2012 (UTC)
  • Keep - Yes, this does appear to be an actual settlement and a tourist-attraction at that.--Oakshade (talk) 18:02, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
