No reliable sources. The population in the infobox contradicts the Mapcarta data and seems implausible. While towns (if this indeed is more than a village) are presumed to be notable, information about them must still be verifiable. I don't see anything verifiable here beyond name and coordinates, and even that is a stretch. Huon ( talk) 10:12, 17 September 2018 (UTC)

- Keep passes WP:GEOLAND as it clearly exists, mentions in English-language articles such as: [1] and appears to have mentions in non-English as well. We do need a population revision though! SportingFlyer talk 18:45, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
- Added a population revision from the Paksitani census. Clearly exists/verifiable per WP:GEOLAND. SportingFlyer talk 03:18, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
- Keep passes WP:GEOLAND as it has now been verified, regards Atlantic306 ( talk) 12:17, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
- Comment - if this is kept, all other unverifiable information should also be scrubbed. There are, to my knowledge, currently at least two errors in the page; I'll get rid of those immediately. I'll also note that WP:GEOLAND speaks of a general presumption. There's no doubt that Bozdar Wada exists, but is that enough to establish notability? "Named natural features are often notable, provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist." Apparently people living there means that we can do without information beyond statistics and coordinates? Huon ( talk) 19:01, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
- Wikipedia is a gazetteer, and per WP:GEOLAND populated places are presumed to be notable. This town has 16,000 people in it and is legally designated and verifiably exists, which is enough for WP:GEOLAND since it's likely sources exist somewhere. SportingFlyer talk 20:39, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. Satisfies GEOLAND. James500 ( talk) 07:17, 22 September 2018 (UTC)
