Alico, California

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Actually the site of a mining spur: searching turned up a reference to "the old railroad siding of Alico" and another reference to Alico as a name for the California Alkali Co. Topos and aerials show no structures at the site; there's no evidence for an actual settlement, though one reference claims a mining camp. Mangoe (talk) 00:42, 26 November 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete. No post office.  Searching newspapers.com for "Alico Inyo" was not fruitful in part because "Alice" seems to sometimes scan as "Alico".  GBooks has references for Alico being a railroad station, so WP:STATION applies.  As this location was never legally recognized and has almost no coverage, trivial or not, #1 and #2 of WP:GEOLAND are not met. Cxbrx (talk) 21:11, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
