Archer Rock

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Non-notable rock that isn't visible on Google Maps; fals WP:GEOLAND. There isn't any available info online beyond location. Balon Greyjoy (talk) 00:19, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

Weak Keep: Seems notable. Was the site of a shipwreck https://www.wickedlocal.com/story/marblehead-reporter/2022/04/05/treasures-deep-marblehead-museum-ray-bates-jr-diver/7264037001/. Is listed as a navigational aid in the 1903 book: United States Coast Pilot: Atlantic Coast. Part I-VIII. U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey. It's mentioned here Stinemetz, Morgan. "SOMETIMES TECHNOLOGY JUST GETS IN THE WAY." Sarasota Herald Tribune, 23 Jan. 1999, p. 3E. Gale General OneFile, link.gale.com/apps/doc/A74060035/ITOF?u=wikipedia&sid=ebsco&xid=e17b3914. Accessed 12 July 2022. Also a Comment: I see you've nominated many similar rocks just minutes apart. Can you please reassure us that you're doing the full range of searched recommended in WP:BEFORE before nominating them? i.e. did you catch these sources and decide it still wasn't notable?

 * Delete per nom. An unidentified 1600s(?) victim and surmised (and also unidentified) shipwreck mentioned in a Marblehead Reporter article and a passing mention in a Sarasota Herald Tribune article are not substantial sources. Clarityfiend (talk) 05:30, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
 * delete Yet another landmark falsely entered from nautical charts, all of which show it as an underwater promontory ten feet under at mean low water, with a buoy to keep any other deep draft vessel from running into it. Look, you can complain about the rate at which these are being nominated all you want, but given that every one of these NA island articles I've looked at so far has problems not just with notability but with the most basic facts, WP:BEFORE on them isn't so much about looking for references as it "requires" the expectation of a reference confirming the first sentence. And I don't think running aground there is enough to grant notability. Mangoe (talk) 05:31, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
