In his magisterial survey of Indian Himalayas, noted mountaineer Harish Kapadia makes no mention on Chaukhamba V (see here) while discussing the Chaukhamba massif -- as the wiki article rightly says has 4 recognised peaks. The creator has taken it upon themselves to name the dubious peak (please see other articles nominated for deletion - they've named one Cream Roll and Lambigad Parvat). The references used are spurious, relying on an index that includes its "preferred name". No reliable sources can be found for Chaukhamba V, as its naming would have made international news in mountaineering circles or even general circles. Article is about a feature that is not notable. Fails WP:GEOLAND. MaysinFourty (talk) 19:56, 22 July 2020 (UTC)

• Merge with Chaukhamba. -Hatchens (talk) 15:19, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

I'm afraid merge is a wrong call here, as whatever the geographical feature is (we know nothing about it) has not been named "Chaukhamba V", and merging would mislead the readers to believe otherwise. MaysinFourty (talk) 15:32, 29 July 2020 (UTC)
