Speedy deletion nomination of Media in Grand Junction, Colorado


A tag has been placed on Media in Grand Junction, Colorado requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. I'm Caker18 ! I edit Wikipedia sparingly.

Articles in Russell County
This isn't going to work per your edit notes, because this section is "unincorporated communities, because you claimed those two weren't communities.  Maybe these articles should be deleted??  •  Sbmeirow  •  Talk  • 22:27, 28 April 2022 (UTC)


 * I suggest simply removing them from the Russell County template, then. Links to these two articles from the Russell County, Kansas page are sufficient. FUBAR007 (talk) 22:32, 28 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Addendum: I don't think the articles should be deleted as both places:  1) appear on some maps (including Google Maps); 2) are named places with official designations codified in the GNIS database; and 3) are known by residents of the county.  If memory serves, Balta appears on road signs on I-70.  The problem is that Balta and Homer are named places, but not communities, and WP doesn't seem to have a good category for them beyond "unincorporated area".
 * On a related subject, many of the places listed as ghost towns--not just in Russell County, but in all Kansas counties--were never towns either, just rural post offices. Unfortunately, credible sources distinguishing which ones were actually towns and which ones were just post offices are scant to non-existent. FUBAR007 (talk) 22:41, 28 April 2022 (UTC)


 * I currently have a lot of work to complete on the communities in the eastern counties of Kansas, so I don't want to start any new task until I finalize my current task. Maybe this fall or winter, we could go through another pass of every county to look at every unincorporated community and ghost town again.  I want to update all of the coords again, then look at the satellite view and 100 year old county Atlas and county maps to determine if any of the GNIS coords are wrong.  Over the past years, I found 5 to 10 coord mistakes then reported the mistake to GNIS to get them to fix it... I found one that was 5 or so miles in the wrong direction compared to old maps.  Any unincorporated communities that look like ghost towns need to be investigate further then determine what to do with them.  •  Sbmeirow  •  Talk  • 08:25, 30 April 2022 (UTC)
