The article Dabokam land has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Fails WP:GNG notability.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. - MrX 15:49, 28 June 2014 (UTC)

editHi, thanks for message. You can sign your comments automatically using four tildes ~~~~. Nothing to do with colonialism, I'm afraid, just that your article was unintelligible. The version I deleted gave no indication whether it is a real place, fictional, or something you have made up. If it's real, there is no indication even what country it's in, and saying it's near a shop doesn't help much.
It's been deleted three times now. If you recreate again, please provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts, and get someone else to read it through before you post. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 06:00, 30 June 2014 (UTC)
