Bodrifty

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Am unable to locate a village named Bodrifty in Cornwall. There are the remains of an ancient settlement of this name at Bodrifty Farm which lies within the boundary of the village of Newmill. - Dave Crosby (talk) 00:24, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

 * keep&mdash;there seems indeed to be no inhabited village in cornwall by this name, but there are many, many sources about the remains of the ancient settlement you mention, which is currently called by this name. that's what the article is probably about, and if not, can be made to be about that, and then would be clearly notable, right? the books search in the find sources template gives endless places to start. &mdash; alf.laylah.wa.laylah (talk) 01:34, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment&mdash; That's a great point, would it need moving to a new title? I love the re-write, it meant I could geotag the thing which is why I was there in the first place. I assume I can't withdraw my AfD? - Dave Crosby (talk) 02:10, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, you can. Malleus Fatuorum 02:21, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Great, I want to do that. I don't remember reading about it in the policy pages (I had to read up on AfD, it was my first), what's the preferred method? - Dave Crosby (talk) 02:32, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep. Malleus Fatuorum 02:36, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Super. Oh my, that's a lot of work. It took me ages to figure the AfD. Would you guys mind if we waited the seven days, or do we know a friendly admin who can do the close? - Dave Crosby (talk) 02:57, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
 * i don't mind waiting, especially since the only alternative that comes to mind is that i figure out how to do it, and i really don't want to! &mdash; alf.laylah.wa.laylah (talk) 03:54, 23 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete. It may be possible to write an article such as the user above describes but this is not it. Malleus Fatuorum 01:41, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
 * comment&mdash; you want to take another look at it? i rewrote the whole thing.  anyway, notability is not based on what's in the article, but what there is to put in the article, and the sources existed even before i rewrote the whole thing. &mdash; alf.laylah.wa.laylah (talk) 01:53, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Nice work, I've struck my delete vote. Malleus Fatuorum 02:07, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
 * thanks, and thanks for the quick cleanup! &mdash; alf.laylah.wa.laylah (talk) 02:17, 23 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep because of the excellent work by alf.laylah.wa.laylah. Well done! Cullen 328   Let's discuss it  06:15, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
