Apache Wells, Arizona

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

A subdivision centered around a golf course, which the neighborhood owns: there's a history on the HOA website which might be taken as a source except there's no real evidence of notability. Mangoe (talk) 01:13, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete Non-notable subdivision. –dlthewave ☎ 01:32, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep I think there are enough sources to develop an article about this community of 1400 centered around a golf course/country club. This is a more detail history, although probably not a RS. A quick search found several newspaper articles including this about annexing into Mesa, this about Mesa absorbing the water company, and this about the community in 2008 when the clubhouse was demolished. Seems to be much more than a WP:MILL subdivision created by a builder. MB 03:39, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete/redirect Still looks like a generic subdivision with a generic golf course to me, right next door to the generic Mesa subdivisions with generic golf courses of Stone Canyon, Alta Mesa, Painted Mountain, Rancho del Lago, and Los Alegres. Reywas92Talk 16:22, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep Seems to be a notable enough community with the above refs, plus is not part of incorporated Mesa. Seems to be a well-regarded course too. ~ EDDY  ( talk / contribs )~ 17:19, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
 * It is part of incorporated Mesa, that's what the annexation article was about... I'm sure many of the country's 15,000 golf courses are well regarded but we only have articles on <5% of them. Reywas92Talk 17:40, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Ok, I couldn't read the annexation article. Change my vote to weak keep/merge then. I still think there can be a decent article written on it (maybe the golf course is more notable), but we need more than what's currently there. ~ EDDY  ( talk / contribs )~ 19:02, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep Easily passes WP:GNG from a simple newspapers.com search, it was a separate community before it was annexed, passed my criteria on User:SportingFlyer/Arizona placenames cleanup. SportingFlyer  T · C  18:54, 13 April 2020 (UTC)
