I am completing this nomination on behalf of an unregistered editor with IP address 60.240.126.92, who posted this on the article talk page: "I am proposing to delete this article per WP:GNG and WP:OR. WP:SOAP seems to be violated as the article appears to be nothing more than an advertisement for Thuravoor. Prod was removed as "all villages are notable" which is a complete untruth." Phil Bridger (talk) 09:34, 10 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per the long standing acceptance that all verified villages are notable. Soapboxing can be fixed by editing. Phil Bridger (talk) 09:34, 10 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

While WP:OUTCOMES#Places on its own states that "Cities and villages are acceptable, regardless of size, so long as their existence can be verified through a reliable source", options 2 and 3 of Wikipedia:Notability (Geographic locations) state that "Geographic locations are not offered any special consideration for notability" and "an article must have;

  1. a name that is either confirmed by the government of the place or by a reliable secondary source,
  2. a cited population estimate or range, such as a census report, and
  3. coordinates that can be confirmed to point unambiguously to the place."
