Doesn't appear to be a notable sector. and the only given reference translates as "View the list of cities in Islamabad" Theroadislong (talk) 07:02, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It,s a new sector at northern islamabad. You can search it on Google earth. Sectors are not much notables, there are many other sectors lik I/10, E/17 ,G sectors.

I,m searching for good sources, but now my network was not working properly.--Yes ji (talk) 08:05, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It is a good idea to find sources before writing an article, Yes ji. Can I suggest using Wikipedia:Articles for creation next time you want to start an article? Cordless Larry (talk) 09:42, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete failing the appearance of sources that show that the sector is notable (not merely that it exists). WP:GEOLAND is the relevant guideline here; it discusses "populated, legally recognized places" which are usually considered to be notable, versus "populated places without legal recognition" which are usually not notable. Examples of the latter include "subdivisions, business parks, housing developments" and it seems reasonable to include the letter-number subregions of Islamabad (discussed here) in the category of "subdivisions". Now, if there were several independent reliable sources discussing E-16 in some kind of detail, it would be different - but not even the Wikipedia article itself claims any notability for this sector, it only mentions that it exists and that it is on the Grand Trunk Road. --bonadea contributions talk 14:37, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - this is the area we're talking about, and as explained by Bonadea, this small sub-division of Islamabad does not meet the relevant notability criteria. It could pass WP:GNG if sources could be found, but I can't find any that discuss the sector in any depth. Cordless Larry (talk) 06:10, 22 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ok-, I don,t want to discuss it much,--Yes ji (talk) 13:57, 22 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Area is not notable and developed enough for it to warrant its own article for now. Optakeover^(U)(T)(C) 14:03, 22 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
