Catnip, Kentucky

 * – ( View AfD View log )

I don't think this one meets WP:GEOLAND or WP:GNG. GNIS entry is sourced to some sort of USGS Mapping Center Report, and Rennick's Jessamine County directory only mentions a Catnip Hill Road, but no Catnip community. There is no entry in his index for Catnip. Topographic maps show the coordinates as being along the railroad, but the name Catnip does not appear on any of the maps. Newspapers.com results in Jessamine County papers are for the Catnip Hill Road and the Catnip Hill Pike. Further WP:BEFORE brings up more references to the road, but this in the main thing I can find referring to an actual place known as catnip. That just says it was a railroad point with no post office. The stuff at the site now appears to just be sprawl from Lexington. This doesn't seem to be a notable place.

 * delete I see essentially the same, plus a reference to a benchmark on the railroad viaduct, and that's about it. It appears to be a somewhat misconstrued railroad point with no town around it. Mangoe (talk) 23:19, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
