Non-existant place. I did not find place with such name in classifier of administrative units of Kyrgyzstan [1][2] (this classifier contains all administrative divisions and places of country). Anatoliy (Talk) 15:54, 9 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This batch of nominations seems ill considered. The nominator does not find this English language name in a Cyrillic alphabet listing of towns, so he wants it deleted as "does not exist." The article includes a link to a satellite map showing where the place is.It shows up on Google Map and Mapquest and weather and travel sites. Inhabited places which show up on maps have generally been considered notable and have been kept in AFDs. Clicking the search aid at the top of this nomination brings up thousands of search results which indicate the place exists. These comments likely apply to the whole batch of nominations.

I know Russian and can transliterate it: it will be Канцин or Кантсин, but there is no such name in classifier.--Anatoliy (Talk) 19:09, 9 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

And ccordinates of this place shows the northern part of the city of Batken. --Anatoliy (Talk) 20:02, 9 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

delete We have no sources here but maps, two of the three disagreeing and the third insufficiently detailed. The indicated spot is, depending on the map, a field on the edge of Batken or what appears to be a memorial and a park of some sort slightly further out of town. There's no sign of a village even on so small a scale as a crossroads with a store. This fails verification unless someone comes up with a much more definite source.

Delete per Mangoe; sourcing just isn't there. Stifle (talk) 18:59, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete WP:BEFORE has been followed; article subject is non-notable (and apparently non-existent). Miniapolis 14:43, 4 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
