Albion Nation

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Recognised geographical areas (a village, a hamlet) are normally notable by default. Made-up geographical areas (the bit around a hamlet, my room) are not. This falls quite obviously into the second category. If I write an article about the Nation of Ironholds Stinky Piss-Poor University Flat and how involved its citizens are in general sarcasm, sardonism and other borderline-rude things beginning with S it doesn't make it worthy of inclusion. Somebody leave me a message when this "nation" is recognised by the UN. Ironholds (talk) 20:56, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Albion, California. I do not see how this article could provide for any different subject matter than the one that already exists. --Nick—Contact/Contribs 21:06, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete, despite the somewhat cranky nomination. No third-party, reliable sources. The only reference is the subject's own website. This is a local phenomenon applying to only one small community, and may in fact be entirely made up by the author of the website. There is no evidence of any notability outside the local community, nor even within the community. •••Life of Riley (T–C) 21:13, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
 * My apologies; the nominator had just spent three hours travelling and had a bad day overall. Ironholds (talk) 05:27, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - I cannot find any reliable sources anywhere regarding this. Seems like a hoax.  §hawn poo   21:30, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete, and do not redirect. This is not notable, and is not a plausible search term. - Lilac Soul (talk • contribs • count) 21:33, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
