Comment: There seems to be no appetite at Talk:French India for a split, so please seek consensus there to merge this in, assuming that is the correct location. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 19:04, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: This draft is a draft on a subtopic of an existing article, French India. Discussion as to whether a separate article for the subtopic is warranted should be on the talk page of the parent article, Talk:French India.Please discuss the suitability of creating a separate subtopic article on the talk page of the parent article. Please resubmit this draft if there is rough consensus at the parent talk page to create the child article, or with an explanation that the child draft satisfies either general notability on its own or a special notability guide.
