The source given is unlinked, can't be accessed to verify. The 'settlement' is not notable (no search results for this or similar names in UAE that aren't themselves derived from WP) and its existence can't be ascertained as there are no other sources. The GEOnet source links to a 500 error and the pin points to the Wadi Wurrayah Dam in Fujairah. Alexandermcnabb (talk) 10:18, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. Inaccurate misleading one-sentence claim. Google maps clearly show no settlement whatsoever in that area. Softlavender (talk) 11:21, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. Disputed and not notable. ParticipantObserver (talk) 07:37, 14 September 2018 (UTC)

- Delete. Amqah at GEOnet Names Server shows the location as a "camp". In turn, GEOnet descibes a camp as "site(s) occupied by tents, huts, or other shelters for temporary use", and designates them "S" for "spot features" instead of "P" for "populated places". Temporary locations are not inherently notable in the same way that permanent populated places are. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 00:29, 16 September 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. Another permastub unreferenced for more than a decade. I can not verify this exists at the location given. No objection to keeping or recreating this, if a stub can be sourced to at least
[[WP:GEOLAND]]
. As it stands now, delete per WP:DEL7. Sam Sailor 20:54, 20 September 2018 (UTC)
