Again, PROD ineligible due to being listed (and not individually discussed) at the procedurally closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Allen Shop Corner, Virginia from last April. I excluded this one from the two batch noms, as there's a bunch of hits for this one, but nothing that indicates a WP:GEOLAND pass. In this case, there are quite a few passing mentions of this place as a road junction, mainly in lists of directions. It also appeared in the boundaries of a probably gerrymandered congressional district in Virginia a few years back, but given that those boundaries also include a ferry and two random city streets, that's no sign of a community here. In fact, in all the many references to this place, none of them ever mention anything actually being here besides a road junction, none of them claim that somebody is from this place, and none ever actually describe this location. This name doesn't even appear on topographic maps, which just show an unnamed road junction with three or four buildings at this site. Clearly not viewed as a community by anyone besides GNIS, fails WP:GEOLAND as just a named road junction. Hog Farm Talk 06:37, 8 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy delete Mass-produced junk without evidence of being a notable community; the prior closure was a mistake that kept unverified content on the project. Reywas92Talk 07:09, 8 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
