Mirpur International Airport

Prod tag removed without significant improvement. This proposed airport is described in the article as "shelved" and the references do not state that it's underway, merely that it's needed. Doesn't meet WP:CRYSTAL Accounting4Taste:talk 13:20, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - As of December 2007 there was still some discussion in Pakistan. Plasticup ^T/C 14:07, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as WP:CRYSTAL violation unless status changes--SarekOfVulcan (talk) 15:46, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - WP:CRYSTAL Although the article has been made to look good by User:Rajput m16, there is no actual substance, or verifiable sources to warrant the article. The first of the two supplied references on the page simply states that the former Prime Minister of Pakistan mentioned it would be built 'if' private sector finance could be obtained in 2006, it couldn't so the project was shelved, That statement may also have been nothing more than a 'Vote Getter' to the local business owners . The second reference does not mention anything about an airport in Mirpur, referring only to one travel company providing a local check-in facility and transport to Islamabad airport, 55Km away, as a convenience for people from Mirpur. The local government development authority The Mirpur Development Authority official website shows no reference at all to any airport development or planning and there is no obtainable source material locatable on Google!

Delete - Discussion is not planning. New airport construction begins with concept development followed by financing arrangements. Until the concept is formally developed, it is just an idea, not a future airport. - Canglesea (talk) 02:12, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
