Personally, I interpret "X is a locality" as a synonym for "X isn't notable". At any rate, the coords take one to the side of a track running in a straight line due east and west, no habitation or indeed any other feature anywhere nearby. Mangoe (talk) 15:03, 19 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. You can't just make up your own definition of the word locality. it is however implausible that this area is uninhabited since most anthropological information assigns specific clan homage to this place. Also these areas Somalis are known for being nomadic, hence no fixed population figures are going to exist. Also, periods of drought occur which could also cause population displacement. Furthermore, dispersion is also very likely because of militia groups which do operate in these areas. Another reason why it is difficult to find sources for this locality is because of the lack of a standardised Somali. This is not the fault of the local community. It is the fault of the weakness of the Somali government. Most of these places are transliterated in a myriad of ways, hence will not be useful when doing a google search. 92.9.152.17 (talk) 21:25, 19 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
