Old vfd[edit]

This was once deleted. Wikivoyage:Votes_for_deletion/March_2007#Hormuz I restored it before noticing that and am inclined to keep it as harmless. Other opinions? Pashley (talk) 23:03, 27 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This is a stub article about a city that no longer exists. I'd be inclined to re-delete. Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:38, 27 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Checking WP, I find it does still exist, though only as a town of 5,000-odd. Pashley (talk) 01:07, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
In which case, it should have an article. Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:36, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Is w:Hormuz Island the same place? There are a couple of good photos of it in Commons; see category Commons:Hormuz Island. Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:46, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
No, though nearby. Pashley (talk) 09:57, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
There's no Wikivoyage article for Hormuz Island. Is it close enough to include in this article, so that a couple of nice photos of it can be included, or should a separate article be created for the island? I wish we had some Iranian users participating in this discussion. I'd love to visit Iran some fine day, but I haven't (and I don't think switching planes with a layover in Tehran Airport in June, 1977 counts). Ikan Kekek (talk) 10:42, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I added text about the island, taking the info from WP. Pashley (talk) 12:22, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
