Cimarron, California

 * – ( View AfD View log )

All topos from the mid-1950s on show a building next to this siding, and the aerials show more: an initially small complex of buildings which around 2000 morphs into what owner Leprino Foods describes as "one of the largest cheese manufacturing facilities in the world". The city has crept up to the edge of this mammoth plant (and I believe it is within the city limits) but initially it was nothing more than a passing siding in the midst of the farms which still blanket the area.

 * Speedy delete Mass-producer negligently misrepresented the source: Durham says "locality: 1.5 miles west of LEmoors along Southern Pacific Railroad", not that it is a notable community or settlement, as is obvious on the topo map. Reywas92Talk 03:24, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:GEOLAND. Part of a mass article-creation campaign based on use of bad sources, and misstating what good sources say. Note to closer: I seriously suggest not relisting these California AFDs unless someone finds a good keep rationale as there's thousands of them coming down the pipe. Someone spent literally years creating tons of these articles and they all have basically the same problem: they rely on bad GNIS data and at most one other source (Durham) which they typically mischaracterise (e.g., Durham will say there was a single building at a location in 1870-something and the author wrote an article about a ghost-town at that site). A "locality" in Durham does not mean an inhabited place. FOARP (talk) 12:12, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete: per nom and FOARP, fails GNG and NGEO.  // Timothy ::  talk  15:21, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
