Salem vs Madurai[edit]
Plenty of cities have rivalries with other cities - there is nothing inherently notable about this one. The link in the article goes to a newspaper article which requires subscription. I managed to find a cached copy at [1] however it doesnt even mention Madurai. Article fails to establish notability. The anon editor which created the article in all fairness must not have a good grasp of English. JamesBurns 08:31, 1 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Non-notable. Of course were this kept, it would need a redirect from Madurai vs Salem — how do you decide which city gets named first in these feuds? Quale 08:57, 1 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- You'd go for the city that "cast the first stone" although that is even harder to decide upon! Master Thief Garrett 10:56, 1 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete', does not appear to be notable. Sietse 09:54, 1 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, unless notability can be established. Master Thief Garrett 10:56, 1 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. A news or gossip item. I'm not convinced this is capable of being encyclopedic. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 18:16, 1 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Apparently created by the anonymous user as part of his joke at P Anandha Kumar, which I have just listed here as well. ESkog 18:26, 6 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
