Arnold Heights, California

 * – ( View AfD View log )

The article states that "All of Arnold Heights has been bulldozed and it no longer exists," It appears that it no longer exists (which is true, but is really WP:OR given that one has to look at aerials to conclude this) but given that neighborhoods are rarely so summarily destroyed without controversy, one must wonder why. Well, it turns out (according to this source the development was base housing for March AFB, and one may deduce that it was gotten rid of when the base was reduced to a reserve post as a result of BRAC closures. Maybe this should be merged to the base article, but at any rate I'm not finding that it was a notable settlement per se. Mangoe (talk) 21:37, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep - It was a housing community for March AFB . It looks mostly commercial now, but it was once a populated place. Magnolia677 (talk) 23:40, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge to March Air Reserve Base. Many military bases have on- or near-base housing, but such subdivisions are not automatically notable. Green Acres was another such "housing area" for family quarters at March. Reywas92Talk 01:45, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge to March AFB. Appears to have just been on-base housing and not a community in its own right.  Subdivisions generally are held to not meet GEOLAND. Hog Farm Bacon 12:27, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge as suggested and is reasonable; otherwise, redirect. Bearian (talk) 22:41, 11 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge. It was located on March AFB property per checking USGS maps.  It had over 580 houses and an elementary school, so I wouldn't be shocked if a full article could be developed.  Right now what we have, though, could also be merged into March AFB if we wanted.--Milowent • hasspoken  17:46, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I could find very little about it other than the assertion that it was base housing; I couldn't even source its demolition. But I would concur that the consensus towards merging is appropriate. Mangoe (talk) 01:06, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
