It appears that these Somali stubs were created without paying attention to the type of feature the name was assigned to. In this case geonames says that it's actually "Duur Gal", and that it's a wadi, not a town. I have a hard time going with wadis being notable without some actual text: the creek down the hill from my parent's house has a name, but there's no article on it in WP, and I don't think that there should be.
