- Keep. This is a major type of populated place as enumerated in the censuses. If the article had been created sooner, then this horrid mess may have been averted. – Uanfala (talk) 16:40, 25 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep yes, the article is a stub but the Encyclopedia Iranica entry, for example, clearly shows that more can be written about this than a dictionary definition. Spicy (talk) 17:22, 25 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep as a notable topic with clear room for expansion. Vaticidalprophet 22:47, 25 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @4nn1l2: It's âbâdi, right, with circumflex accents? — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 01:16, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- âbâdi is a perfectly acceptable transliteration used on Wikitionary, but there are other alternatives such as ābādī as chosen by Iranica. There is not an established transliteration scheme for Farsi as far as I know. The English Wikipedia has not adopted any MOS regarding Farsi as far as know (Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Persian is just a proposal). 4nn1l2 (talk) 07:00, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- I'd just transliterate is as Ābādī as the Persian "آ" is generally transliterated like that, and that's what most sources say. However there are quite a few derivatives of the transliteration. And as 4nn1l2 states, there is no proper guideline on transliterating Persian. — Berrely • Talk∕Contribs 07:16, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep As per all, it is a notable topic with clear room for expansion. Ambrosiawater (talk) 04:37, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Besides Iranica article mentioned above, this is another quality article on abadi (in Farsi) from Encyclopaedia Islamica. 4nn1l2 (talk) 06:48, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- -abad (AfD discussion) is currently listed for deletion as well. Should it redirect here? Uncle G (talk) 09:15, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep per the source from here. Per the wealth of information on the Iranian encyclopaedia editors that have access to similar resources can expand the article easily. SunDawn (talk) 06:47, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
