Does not meet WP:GNG and WP:PLACEOUTCOMES. It's a different excel file now but still not notable. Hongsy (talk) 14:41, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Reference #1 is the official Census of Iran. If a town is listed on their spreadsheet for this region (#11 in this case), then it's officially recognized per WP:GEOLAND and therefore notable. @Hongsy, is Ganj Konar listed? Checking references is part of WP:BEFORE.

Thanks,

Comment - Whilst simply being an abadi does not give a pass of WP:GEOLAND, in this case the population is large enough that the abadi should have been converted into a proper village. The issue is that even if this happened, it may not have this name (the name apparently translates as "You are martyred" according to Google Translate, though I wouldn't necessarily read too much into this). Looking at the table, it actually does not include an exact match for this village-name, but line 1390 includes 'شهيدايت شندك which I understand is similar in sound/meaning and has the same number of people/families as in the article. Personally I'd lean towards just redirecting this to Gowhar Kuh Rural District per WP:NOPAGE since there might at some point actually be a real article about a real village here.
