Cambodia

[edit]

I deleted:

Rath, surname given to orphaned children in Cambodia,

which cited the New York Times article [1], as not relevant to Wikipedia. If there is a mention in Wikipedia of this practice, i.e. it is notable in some way, then the entry should bluelink to the appropriate section of that article. --Bejnar (talk) 12:24, 15 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This citation for Rath is correct and should not be deleted. Rath means "a ward of the State" and is a Cambodian (K'mer) word.It is a surname (first name) assigned to all of the orphans in Cambodia. (HERBIEJACK (talk) 19:31, 8 April 2015 (UTC)).[reply]

@HERBIEJACK: Please could you point to where in the Wikipedia it would be appropriate to document this practice? --Bejnar (talk) 21:28, 8 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Travis Rath

[edit]

I deleted: Travis Rath (living), an American Industrialist, founder of Tracon. Because neither Travis Rath nor Tracon appear to be notable. Tracon is a small business consulting firm in West Frankfort, Illinois. --Bejnar (talk) 12:24, 15 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
