This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Tamil Nadu. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

1. Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Tamil Nadu|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Tamil Nadu. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to India.

Does not meet Wikipedia:Notability. Could find no significant coverage or sources to establish notability and certainly not to class it as either populous or legally recognised under Wikipedia:Notability (geographic features). Coldupnorth (talk) 08:50, 7 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Geography and Tamil Nadu. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 10:43, 7 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, per nom. -Samoht27 (talk) 16:00, 7 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - places don't have to be "populous", merely populated, and no-one can actually say what "legally recognised" is supposed to mean outside the US... Ingratis (talk) 09:37, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  Is it included on Indian census documentation? If so then that's a good sign its recognized to some legal capacity. -Samoht27 (talk) 15:59, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  There is no "Krishnampalli" in the 2011 India census, only two villages named "Krishnampalle", both of which are in Andhra Pradesh. Tutwakhamoe (talk) 18:19, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

and can you please add the link to the first AfD nomination? Ingratis (talk) 09:40, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It can be found here, for easy access. Réunion! 22:37, 9 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

If you will look carefully, there is a box for previous nominations at the top of every AfD entry, which is where the link should have been and where I have now added it, since the nomr hasn't. Ingratis (talk) 07:39, 11 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom - if SIGCOV does end up being found, I'd support a redirect to Krishnampalle, per Mccapra in the previous nomination. Réunion! 22:40, 9 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This is not the same place as Krishnampalle. Ingratis (talk) 07:40, 11 May 2025 (UTC) superseded:[reply]

• Redirect to Chendathur. There are several places called Krishnampalli / Krishnampalle, and this particular one, as nom states, apparently fails WP:GEOLAND in that although it can be shown to ba a (very small) populated place it doesn't seem to meet any interpretation of "legally recognised" and lacks the SIGCOV for GNG. There are sources confirming that it's a hamlet in the village / taluk panchayat of Chendathur - refs added to that article. Ingratis (talk) 13:16, 11 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
