Villárvattam
After reviewing the creator's contributions, and the fact that there is an ongoing AfD for another article that the author created, I believe this article should be deleted. It needs to be completely rewritten and perhaps moved to Raja Thoma Villarvattom. There definitely was a Hindu King who converted to Christianity. After his death, however, his lands passed to the Paliath Achan. This article makes a lot of dubious claims:
- Villarvattom being an Empire.
- Villarvattom conquering Muziris.
- The Villarvattom dynasty existing from the 10th to the 14th century.
- The Villarvattom dynasty being the most powerful Emprire in Ancient Kerala.
- "King" Itty Thomman who was apparently the first king. Actually, he was a Syrian Christian Vicar who was also a local leader and led resistance efforts against the imposition of Roman Catholicism by the Portuguese.
Needless to say all of these claims are unsourced and I cannot find anything that will corroborate these claims. --vi5in 20:00, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
- Keep: It would be better remove the unsourced content than deleting the article Daya Anjali (talk / contribs) 11:20, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
- Comment: No, the article should be deleted, because Villarvattom doesn't describe a Christian King. It describes a town/city/principality. A new article called Raja Thoma Villarvattom should be created, with proper information. --vi5in 16:15, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
- This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 11:50, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. If you have a problem with a detail fix it, find other information yourself. M.V.E.i. 16:49, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of India-related deletions. -- Groggy Dice T | C 22:34, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
- Comment. Why not just move the article to Raja Thoma Villarvattom and fix any unsourced/dubious stuff? utcursch | talk 08:11, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
- Comment - Ok, will do that. I'll also create an article under Villarvattam so that it doesn't redirect to the new article. --vi5in 16:15, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
