Merge/redirect proposal

This article was created by LibMod, who we all now know has no connection whatsoever to this region and likely no knowledge of it. Given his userspace contributions that are now deleted, I'm not sure we can trust articles written by him as being reliable among other concerns.

I'm not suggesting that we remove all of his content, but in a case such as this one, where there's a 99.99% chance he has no local knowledge, it's a different story. The article is posted here like it's information is as authoritative as our other guides while it's actually written not only a banned user, which is bad enough, but also a banned user who's probably not even from this region of the world and likely hasn't even been here. --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 23:29, 15 May 2020 (UTC)

• Support. There is little useful information here, and his contributions are suspect as spent a lot of his time creating pages about fantasy places in his user space. Ground Zero (talk) 11:00, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
• Support As this location was in a war zone when the article was created, I don't think that the information would be reliable now even if it was written by somebody who was there. AlasdairW (talk) 22:13, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
• Result: I have redirected the article to Hauran per AlasdairW's point that the content of the article is unreliable. --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 16:05, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
