Fails GNG due to lack of significant coverage. No evidence that this is or was a notable populated place. (Split from previous batch AfD) –dlthewave ☎ 16:12, 13 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Marked as a (site) on topo map. There was a Corva Cedar Products company placing ads in the paper, so they may have had operations there but I can't find evidence it was a populated place or had notability. Reywas92^Talk 21:48, 13 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Passes WP:GEOLAND as a recognised railroad station (which shut down in 1971). The place is still referred to by contemporary trainspotters. [1] SportingFlyer T·C 00:21, 14 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There is a no consensus at that all stations are notable and don't need to meet GNG. See Wikipedia:Notability (Railway lines and stations)#Stations and Wikipedia talk:Notability/Archive 65#Train stations. Stations are not geographic feature, the only relevant part of GEOLAND would be as buildings which require sig cov. MB 05:57, 14 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but I added a source to the article showing people had moved into houses there, which gets it past our low populated place threshold. SportingFlyer T·C 06:23, 14 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep for the reasons cited in the previous batch AfD. It's cited in a book of Arizona place names, was used as a place name in 1974 according to this book, and was discussed as a real populated place in the several articles SportingFlyer mentioned in the other AfD. Unlike many of the other places recently nominated for deletion, there's every indication that this is a real populated place. TheCatalyst31 ^{Reaction•Creation} 02:10, 14 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per the two previous comments. It already well passes the threshold. -DJSasso (talk) 18:51, 14 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Part of a large batch of poorly BEFORE'd articles. It is a real and populated place, and passes WP:GEOLAND. CaptainEek ^{Edits Ho Cap'n!}⚓ 20:41, 14 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per the others above. Was a historic population center and still a big part of southwest rail history. Oakshade (talk) 06:07, 15 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
