Notability[edit]
This article was proposed for deletion, on notability grounds, specifically "No indication of notability". I wish to defend the notability of this article. I am the original creator of this article.
My main argument for notability is that mandi, in this sense, is covered in Rough Guides and Lonely Planet; these are two of the most widely used sets of travel guides in the world; they are generally considered to be reliable.
The references are included in the article. (Unfortunately one of the links - referring to Rough Guide Malaysia - is broken, but the relevant text that was there is shown in the reference.)
Argument that this coverage is significant: in both cases mandi (in the sense of this article) is described.
These sources are indepedent.
I have removed the proposed for deletion template, following the instructions in the template.
