Yet another reason not ot scrape articles out of gazetteers: the typos. Prockmans gets almost no Ghits, and besides Durham, the only "legitimate" hit is this map; but checking against the topos I find that the location indicated is that of Brockman, California, whose notability is a little iffy, but which is listed in GNIS and which finds some other real mentions. I'm loathe to redirect one to the other given the paucity of legitimate references, but it's a possibility. Mangoe (talk) 15:09, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. "Prockmans" has no significant coverage, failing WP:GNG. I agree with nom that it is probably a typo of Brockman, which is actually notable. --Danre98(talk^contribs) 16:06, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Typos happen, this location is indeed Brockman.--Milowenthasspoken 16:41, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete It's a typo that's been sitting around for more than 10 years. A good example of how you can call anything a community and make it nearly impossible to correct. Glendoremus (talk) 19:51, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
