Cucumgilliga is a homestead within the bounded locality of Cowra, New South Wales . There is no locality known as Cucumgillica. It doesn't exist so hardly any need for an article on a non-existent place Crusoe8181 (talk) 12:53, 17 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Tentative delete. Have not been able to find any reliable sources proving its existence. Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:01, 17 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Crisco, there is (or was) a school at this location with the same name, and a single family home/farm, but as a separate locality, I am not finding proof.--Milowent • ^talkblp-r 00:07, 18 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete As above. Doctorhawkes (talk) 06:19, 18 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep/merge When one searches using the various spellings, one finds numerous hits in Google Books and Google Scholar relating to matters such as the collection of specimens. Being distinctive, these names are useful as search terms and it is our policy that Wikipedia performs the function of a gazetteer. They should therefore not be made into red links.

Redirect, having frequently driven along Lachlan Valley Way, I can verify that there's not much there, certainly not any significant towns in that area. With that said, it's the name of a local landmark and a plausible search term, and should be redirected to Cowra, New South Wales. Lankiveil ^{(speak to me)} 08:42, 18 May 2011 (UTC).[reply]

Delete localities are inherently notable but homesteads not. Colonel Warden's argument does not address how this is notable just some vague metaphor. LibStar (talk) 11:10, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Cowra, New South Wales per Lankiveil. Orderinchaos 22:17, 23 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per Lankiveil. As it is a reasonable search term, a redirect is far more appropriate than deletion. Rlendog (talk) 15:45, 25 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
