Fails WP:GNG; WP:GEOLAND and it has been deleted before. Ibjaja055 ( talk) 14:01, 14 October 2023 (UTC)

- Comment: this is the
edit summary in the deletion log from the previous deletion:
"expired PROD, concern was: Not notable. The notable geographical feature here is Mushrif Park - the area is in any case called 'Al Mushrif' but almost entirely consists of the park. Article sourced to a GIS database entry and is fraudulent - the area (independent of the park) is not mentioned the title in the bibliography. Fails WP:GNG; WP:GEOLAND."
- @ Alexandermcnabb, you live in the UAE --do you know anything about this place?

- Delete with fire Hey,
A. B. - I suspect I'm the author of the original PROD and didn't know the article had been re-created. Per the previous deletions, the Park is notable, the area is not. The creator went on a little spree of creating non-existent 'communities' based on a PDF of a Dubai Municipality list of area names - giving an area a name doesn't necessarily mean anyone lives there and in this case, the editor cited fallacious bibilographies and re-captioned generic photos to 'big up' the pages and make them look, at least superficially, notable. You do meet some odd people here from time to time. As for arguments, fails WP:GNG and WP:GEOLAND. Thanks for the ping and OTR. Oh, and closer, please God salt this... Best
