Previously deleted at PROD and now recreated. It fails WP:GNG. Not to be confused with Khatri, there appear to be no reliable sources that discuss this community. It probably is a last name but no more could be said. We don't even have an article for anyone bearing the name, and the Raj sources that are provided have long been deemed to be unreliable.

  • Ok i have discussed this article with Sitush, i am working on more reliable sources/references for this article. In the meantime, please note that reference no.2 provided from the book "A glossary of the tribes and castes of the Punjab and North-West frontier province"

by Rose, H. A. (Horace Arthur) is quite reliable. You can go to actual page no.551 or page 1136/1188 on the pdf and other versions available of this book and refer to "KHUTRIL". There might only be a spelling issue and nothing else. So i again request not to delete this article.

  • No, those sources are not reliable and I've already told you why this is so. - Sitush ( talk) 19:38, 13 August 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Redirect to a list article ( previous discussion) or, failing that, delete unless better sources are provided, the two in the article being unreliable (and the very cursory google books check that I made revealed nothing better). Uanfala ( talk) 08:33, 27 August 2016 (UTC) reply
  • As seems common with caste/tribe article AfDs, your suggestion of a redirect is inappropriate. - Sitush ( talk) 16:34, 4 September 2016 (UTC) reply
