"This article may not meet the general notability guideline. Please help to establish notability by adding reliable, secondary sources about the topic. If notability cannot be established, the article is likely to be merged or deleted. (July 2008)"

I am sorry, I don't understand what standards of "general notability" you use that would not include a town named SHITLINGTON CRAG. Perhaps the standards of notability need to be revised.

I checked Google Earth, and the town is indeed there:

Shitlington Crag, Wark, Hexham, NE48, UK

Latitude: 55° 7.102'N Longitude: 2° 15.682'W

Here's an external reference: http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=51273#s14

Apparently, SHITLINGTON CRAG is situated between the townships of SHITLINGTON HIGH and SHITLINGTON LOW.

DISAMBIGUATION

Not to be confused with:

W. by W.) from Wakefield; containing 2164 inhabitants. It is situated on the road from Wakefield to Huddersfield, in the fertile and picturesque valley of the Calder; and comprises about 3280 acres. The soil is rich, and the substratum abounds with excellent coal, which is extensively worked. Coke is made in abundance, for the supply of the railways; and there are some quarries of good building-stone, the produce of which, and of the collieries, is sent to the East riding and to London, by the Calder and Hebble navigation. The woollen manufacture is carried on at Middle, Over, and Nether Shitlington. There are places of worship for Wesleyans at MIDDLE and NETHER SHITLINGTON.
