I don't think this one meets WP:GEOLAND. GNIS entry is sourced to Rennick, but this Whippoorwill isn't in his Marion County directory and isn't in his index. Coordinates show an isolated point along a small stream known as Whippoorwill Branch. This is unrelated to the article redirected in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Whippoorwill, Kentucky, which was in Logan County. The coverage I can find is limited to minor mentions for that Logan County Whippoorwill and then an obscure post office site in Laurel County that doesn't have an article. There's just not really evidence of a WP:GEOLAND or WP:GNG-passing community named Whippoorwill in Marion County. Hog Farm _Talk 23:36, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
