Comment: Same deal. Paywalled sources are fine to use on Wikipedia, but I can't access it to review this page. My institutional login through Wikipedia isn't working either.
Additionally, this article is kind of bare bones. You say it has faced "significant historical disruptions" - well, what? Who has recognized is as an important center? EatingCarBatteries _{(contribs | talk)} 07:21, 1 July 2026 (UTC)

Comment: As a populated town, it would meet WP:POPULATED. However, there's only one source which is inaccessible to me. If you add other accessible sources, this will make the reviewing process easier. Greenman (talk) 21:25, 15 June 2026 (UTC)

Comment: In accordance with Wikipedia's Conflict of interest guideline, I disclose that I have a conflict of interest regarding the subject of this article. Dhurwale (talk) 20:59, 14 June 2026 (UTC)

Dhurwale Dhurwale is a historical town and kebele located in the Kebri Beyah Woreda of the Fafan Zone, within the Somali Regional State of Ethiopia. Historically recognized as an important local center competing with prominent regional hubs like Jijiga and Degehabur, the town has faced significant historical disruptions over the 20th century. In recent years, it has served as a critical location for humanitarian relocation^[1] and durable housing solutions for internally displaced persons (IDPs) within the region.
