Still no evidence of notability. Previous proposal reached no consensus. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 19:32, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment. As I did last time, I will again note that this 100 year old camp  is located on its own island in the middle of Source Lake in Ontario's Algonquin Provincial Park; whatever the particular notability of the camp, the island itself is apparently notable per WP:GEOLAND (as a named natural feature about which verifiable content is available). So even if the camp is not notable, some of the content here would then be appropriately repurposed for an article about the island. In the last AfD an editor argued that this is a claim of "inherited notability" but I don't agree: the point is that  pursuant to Wikipedia's gazetteer function that means we should maintain content about this named geographical feature.--Arxiloxos (talk) 20:31, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Do we have any reliable, independent sources for his the island is named? Google Maps gives it as "Pathfinder Island". Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 21:24, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Here are a couple of newspaper sources using "Camp Pathfinder Island": . But now that you point it out, I've checked again and find that there do appear to be more sources using "Pathfinder Island", including on the camp's own website.    Given this, I would be fine with using Pathfinder Island as the title for an article about the island.  (Note that there is another "Pathfinder Island" on the Oswego River near Fulton, New York. ). --Arxiloxos (talk) 00:18, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
