Comment: Reference #2 is the official Census of Iran. If a town or district is listed on their spreadsheet for this region (#06 in this case), then it's officially recognized per WP:GEOLAND and therefore notable. @Hongsy, is Hoseyniyeh-ye Mashkur listed? Checking references is part of WP:BEFORE.

Thanks,

Comment - This place is an abadi which are explicitly excluded from WP:GEOLAND (" Census tracts, Abadi, and other areas not commonly recognized as a place (such as the area in an irrigation district) are not presumed to be notable"), since many of them are not actually villages but instead farms, factories, military bases, pumps, shops etc. In this case Google translate tells me the name means "Thank you Hosseini" though I wouldn't necessarily read too much into that. The population is large enough that the place should eventually be converted into a village, though I don't see any evidence that this has happened. FOARP (talk) 10:52, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This is one of the many articles Carlossuarez46 created on places listed in the Iranian census; later investigation revealed that many of the places weren't communities at all and he didn't fully understand the sources he was interpreting. In light of that, I think it's fair to delete any questionable-looking article he created that doesn't have additional sources. (I'll leave it to people who know the country better to determine what counts as questionable-looking, but this article seems to.)
