Robert McClenon, Where are the comments from the draftifying reviewer (you)? Also, I am aware that a slough of articles with titles very similar to this one were recently created and subsequently draftified-- but I am not yet sure why, exactly, as they look notable (but the production of them was overwhelming and problematic and wrong at several levels, I agree, totally, and I am not at all sure this one deserves placement in the mainspace). Thoughts? A loose necktie (talk) 16:46, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
This is one of about 70 nearly identical articles which were discussed at many different locations (many threads at the creator's talk page, many threads at my talk page, a few threads at NPP plus.... The best description of the issues is at one of the approx. 70 nearly-identical articles is at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Burhanpur Municipal Corporation Probably the most salient issue is that it is a bad-idea fork from the respective city article with zero suitable for the topic of the article. 95%+ of the content is mass-replicated info and sources about that general type of entity and not about the topic of the article. and the other 5% is sort of trivia not suitable for the article. This also includes a mention of the discussion where the creator of the articles asked that they be moved to draft space which I guess is a much simpler reason.
