Now that I look at it, the article is basically WP:OR with the sources mostly mentioning the [[Orstkhoy]]s but not the region. Also, there's not really sources that are go into detail about the region. So, that's the reason that I think the article should be deleted. Shame that I didn't notice those problems when I had created the article.}} ~~~~ |
