*'''Delete'''. No "practically" about it. This is perhaps the worst-organized, ''least-accurate'' list I've ever seen on the project. It is so bad that it is tempting to wonder if intentional disinformation is involved. [[User:Serpent's Choice|Serpent's Choice]] ([[User talk:Serpent's Choice|talk]]) 18:31, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

List of villages in Haryana (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This list is actively harmful, because there is no reason to believe any of it is accurate. I checked A through H (mind you, I have no idea what that organization means, since the alleged villages are not listed in alphabetical order), and, of the blue links (which are themselves a vast minority), exactly 2 lead to actual articles on villages in Haryana. The rest led to villages in other states, countries, last names of people, dab pages (which had no links to Haryana villages)...This is not a case of something which can be corrected through editing. There is no source for the overall list, and thus no reason to believe it's anything other than a random collection of made up places. Working from this list actually makes it harder to improve the encyclopedia, not easier. Qwyrxian (talk) 05:25, 23 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
