Bluegum, California

 * – ( View AfD View log )

I don't think WP:GEOLAND or WP:GNG are met here. Not on the topos, which show a gravel pit at the site. The GNIS entry is sourced to a road map. Google maps show a cheese factory at the site. Not in Gudde. Newspapers.com hits are for a type of tree known as the Blue Gum. This non-RS web source describes it as an area with a grove of eucalyptus trees an a former restaurant site. I've been able to turn up a few references to a Blue Gum Motel, and there is a Bayliss-Blue Gum Road in the area. Google books ain't bringing up much significant. I'm just not convinced that this meets any notability guideline. Hog Farm Bacon 05:53, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

 * delete First off, the GNIS cite is to one of those highly questionable county maps. But it is also possible to verify the non-RS site by driving past the place in streetview, where you can see the (ex-)restaurant and the motel sitting next to each other, maybe a mile north of the cheese factory. Go far enough back on the aerials and the buildings go away. It's pretty clear that the only Blue Gum was this restaurant/motel combination, so not notable.
