Aqua Park, Oklahoma

 * – ( View AfD View log ) •

This place/township is not notable; very few permanent buildings, some vacation homes and commercial properties, no post office. I can't find significant coverage of it in secondary sources. The current article admits that the place mostly isn't even referred to by this name any more. Demiurge1000 (talk) 10:50, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete My first instinct was that this is a place name so surely there has to be SOMETHING in third party sources on it. After about a half hour of searching, I can't find anything anywhere. There's no listings in any books or scholarly articles I can find. Ghits are just generic targeted advertisements for the area. Nothing with the Census Bureau or the US Geological Survey. I wouldn't oppose a merge of any usable material to Gore, Oklahoma, however, as this seems to be the city Aqua Park is now a part of. Redfarmer (talk) 11:19, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment - Google Maps shows that Aqua Park is eight miles north of Gore, and satellite visuals appear to show dense development within an isolated area. This book lists Tenkiller State Park as being in Aqua Park, and this book describes Aqua Park's playground. The US Army Corps of Engineers conflates Aqua Park with Tenkiller State Park in its analysis of water demands. —  C M B J   20:34, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment The GNIS lists Aqua Park as a neighborhood; based on its coordinates, it's part of Paradise Hill now. Neighborhoods of a town that small generally aren't independently notable, but if there's some coverage, it might be worth merging. TheCatalyst31 Reaction•Creation 23:08, 1 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge to Paradise Hill, Oklahoma. It is accepted practice on Wikipedia to redirect names of geographic locations not notable enough for standalone article to others that are. Sebwite (talk) 22:06, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge to Paradise Hill, Oklahoma. Insufficiently notable for a stand alone article. PhilKnight (talk) 18:38, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
