This place is manifestly a factory. It was previously deleted for exactly this reason. That it is mentioned as an abadi in the Iranian census is neither here nor there. Plenty of factories around the world have dormitories where people live, and would be counted by the census, this does not make them "legally recognised, populated places" - that this is a temporary population is emphasised by the great reduction in population from 5,909 in 2006 to 2,546 in 2011 - they laid off part of their workforce!
Looking at the satellite photos, I'd love people to tell me where exactly the "village" is supposed to be here.
The relevant standard here, for a business, is WP:CORP, and the Pars Paper Company does not even nearly pass that standard - all that can be found are passing mentions of the strikes in May this year and their company website. FOARP (talk) 08:51, 18 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- I appreciate my inclusion in the discussion for deletion of the article. I have no issue with the elimination of the page based on your reasoning; it is solid. There is a link from Hoseynabad Rural District (Shush County) indicating its status as the largest village in its rural district. I'll update that reference, and if it exists in a list of populated places, I can remedy that at the same time. I don't expect any objections to Pars Paper Company's removal; so absent any objection to the proposed action, carry on. Thank you. Brightkingdom (talk) 11:29, 18 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I agree with the reasoning above. It is a company, not a village as evident from satellite photos and there aren't any references which meet GNG/NCORP criteria for establishing notability. HighKing++ 12:50, 25 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per the above. If anything, there seems to be some confusion here with what the sources indicate... but this is plainly a company that doesn't meet NCORP. Bestagon ⬡ 17:39, 25 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
