I can not find any independent reliable sources that discuss this cemetery. As far as I can determine this cemetery does not meet our notability guidelines. -- GB fan 20:12, 30 June 2015 (UTC)
 * I have gone through the search that Northamerica1000 left and do not think there is enough there to show notability. Most of the sources there are passing mentions, someone was buried there, a monument isn't going to be moved there and moonlight stroll through the cemetery.  There is a single article that is all about the moonlight stroll through the cemetery.  I do not see that as enough to show it as notable.  -- GB fan 23:48, 12 July 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete, not notable and yes did review the "search" linked. Kierzek (talk) 20:23, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep though I will admit that to some extent that's because ILIKEIT--I believe we should keep articles on monumental/historical locations such as this one. I'm going to look a bit harder since I can't help but think that there ought to be more material, given that this indicates the cemetery as a boundary between segregated areas (and this points in the same direction), and this (from NA's search) says there is a plot with unnamed graves containing victims of lynchings. There has to be more, and in expectation of that more I say we should keep this for now. Drmies (talk) 00:50, 14 July 2015 (UTC)
 * keepThis is a historically important cemetery for Orlando. We should expand this article as much as possible but we should keep it.Jimmy19761976
 * Keep - This article appears to fall under WP:GEOFEAT. Although there is no inherited notability with places (the list of notable people buried there won't count), places "can be notable as a result of their historic, social, economic, or architectural importance". In a nutshell, locations are notable due to properties, facts, significance, etc. involving the location itself and not by those who own, visit, or live there. Looking at the sources found and provided by Drmies, I agree that there are sources that establish notability with the location itself, and hence meets WP:GEOFEAT.  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   01:19, 15 July 2015 (UTC)
