I am a bit confused here. The article says this place was on the railroad east of Cameron and west of Tehachapi, but since Cameron is east of Tehachapi, this directions are impossible. There's no GNIS entry, but from scanning the topos from well west of Tehachapi to east of Cameron, there's no feature on the railroad called Nadeau. There's a neighborhood in LA known as Nadeau, so this is making it a bit difficult to search. Newspapers.com results are for a hotel, a bar, and a vineyard in LA, even searching for Nadeau Kern. Gudde's Nadeau references appear to be refering to LA. I just can't find anything about this supposed place with impossible directions. Hog Farm Bacon 06:16, 5 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: @Hog Farm: There does, in fact, seem to have been a Nadeau in Kern County[1][2], the associated mine of which does roughly seem to be connected by an abandoned railroad from what I can see on Google Maps. However, said Nadeau and mine seem to be north and east of both Cameron and Tehachapi, if this site is to be believed. The cite in the article I can't see, though, perhaps it would help if the author showed a G Books link if available.

  • Delete: per nom, fails GNG and NGEO. If there are not RS showing where the supposed location is and there is not SIGCOV about the location, it fails notability. If there was one or the other, perhaps a case could be made, but failing both, this should definetely be deleted. A place that the name is uncertain, the location is unknown, and the history, details, etc is completely unknown is not notable.   // Timothy :: talk  14:34, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete the above rather exhaustive search indicates nothing that would qualify under the GNG or any applicable SNG. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 06:33, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
