There is already an article Kori.Why do we need many articles for the same community? Mahensingha 20:07, 14 April 2014 (UTC)

  • Delete absent input from someone who knows more about the subject. Kori is a disambiguation page, leading eventually to Koli people. The Kori caste article has many severe issues, and I suspect some of its content would be rather surprising to archaeologists and historians. Most of it seems to be concerned with (I think mythical) ancient history of various Indian people groups - if this belongs anywhere in Wikipedia, it isn't here.

  • Delete I am not convinced that the two Kori pages are about the same group of people. But that aside this article is an NPOV disaster, and I don't think it's fixable. -Ad Orientem (talk) 21:15, 15 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete What i find that the article kori caste also represent the same group of people, which is clearly mentioned also in the heading no.3. but here i find a lot of unreliable material stolen from the literature basically depicting Rajputs or other Kshatriya communities and hence the article lacks mention of correct sources. Also it does not meet the Wiki tone as the article is written just to advertise the false glory of the caste without any or sufficient proofs.

Merge with Koli people. Yikes. If this article was made sooner, your rationale is a criterion for speedy deletion. But there is content that is really similar to another page, so they can just exchange w/ each other instead of destruction. Mr. Guye (talk) 19:57, 21 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
