[edit] Beckermonds
:Beckermonds (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log) Article was new a while ago and left it alone advising the author that it should be expanded upon to show WP:N. No additions of Notability have been added since and the article was Prod. Prod removed by author without explanation, Reverted and removed again by User:UsaSatsui with the statement "This appears to be describing a geographical location, which are generally considered notable (unless you can show it doesn't exist)." [1].
Delete I don't think that an article with "This town is here between here and here is notable" WP:N requires that there be something more then this. Otherwise, the location of my house will become notable. See Munster, Ontario for an example of what I'm talking about. There's only like 1000 people in the town and if you blink while your driving, you'll miss it... but the article has something that makes it notable. Pmedema (talk) 17:57, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

- Keep, unless once again, you can show it's a hoax (the article doesn't really have any proof this place exists). According to the common outcomes page, "Cities and villages are acceptable, regardless of size". And for the record, 1,000 people is a good-sized town. I've been through much smaller towns than that. --UsaSatsui (talk) 18:08, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

- comment Munster, Ontario was being used as a GOOD example of an article which shows notability.--Pmedema (talk) 18:22, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
- Keep - Towns/villages/settlements are inherently notable. --Oakshade (talk) 19:23, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. Per WP:OUTCOMES, settlements are inherently notable. Espresso Addict (talk) 22:38, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
