The result was redirect to List of villages in Akwa Ibom State. The !votes were three saying keep, three saying redirect, and one that seems to prefer keep but accepts a redirect. However, nobody arguing in favor of keep presented a rebuttal to the fact that notability in GEOLAND is only presumed and not inherited for simply any populated/official locality. Editors arguing in favor of delete provided clear evidence that the topic is not notable enough for a standalone article, primarily because of its sourcing, and the discussion resulted in a consensus to redirect.

De-prodded by Clarityfiend with the reasoning "more than enough official government sources for WP:GEOLAND". However, all the sources are simply database entries that do not even list the place's population. While there is a general presumption of notability in GEOLAND - that presumption can be rebutted. This village and others like it is not notable - we don't have population statistics or any information about the village other than the local government area it is located in (also, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Itak Ekim, a previous AfD I filed for a similar village, leading to its deletion, as these are not notable places).

This guideline specifically excludes maps and tables from consideration when establishing topic notability, because these sources often establish little except the existence of the subject.Elli ( talk | contribs) 21:27, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
