As seen in the previous version of the article (which I have removed on grounds of not being notable enough to be added and not being consistent with Wikipedia quality), there is nothing very notable about this town, except that it exists. My opinion stands to expand the article enough to give some reason for it being notable, or to delete this article until such details can be established, after which we can always re-create the article

Can anyone show me the actual rules regarding places and their notablity? I seem to be having quite a problem getting hang of the full rules when it comes to things like verifiablity and notablity of articles. I withdraw my nomination seeing the consensus of the community based on how this AfD is going. Thanks

Keep - It's a verified settlement and it appears to be a very significant one. [1]. There is no such thing as an unnotable town. Anywhere in the world there is a presumption of sources, whether they be government, historic, periodical or any other format as it's impossible for a settlement to exist without them.
