The result was redirect to Dospey Heights. The nomination contends that GEOLAND is not met because no "information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist". The "keep" opinions therefore would have had to rebut that argument by referencing such information, but they have not done so. Content can be merged from the history as appropriate.

While this does meet WP:GEOLAND #4 as a named geographical feature, no information beyond statistics and coordinates are known to exist. The summit is already mentioned in its parent feature Dospey Heights, and so deletion rather than merger appears to be the better option. BilledMammal (talk) 04:36, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep if it meets WP:GEOLAND #4 as a named geographical feature, I'm not seeing the rationale for deletion. W C M_email 07:54, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Because there is not information beyond name and location, this does not in fact meet Geoland4. Honestly this could be a speedy redirect to Dospey Heights as part of that place. Reywas92^Talk 08:46, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep WP:GEOLAND presents a low bar and Start Hill, as demonstrably a named geographic feature, passes it. Also there are academic papers that reference it as well as other sources - including books - WP:BEFORE! Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 09:54, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Reading that publication, I believe there are two issues with using it to justify this article. First, its Start Hill Formation extends beyond Start Hill, including "much of Rugged Island". Second, there is little discussion on the formation, with the authors "prefer[ing] to define a type area covering northern Ray Promontory" BilledMammal (talk) 03:35, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Dospey Heights. I habitually upmerge minor Antarctic features to parent features, as they almost always fail GEOLAND on the basis of just being name entries in gazetteers. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 07:59, 27 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
