Hackett, Kansas

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Another short-lived post office, with no trace of it on any map I can find and a deleted GNIS entry. We need some real evidence of a settlement, not just name drops in a local newspaper, and at present all we have are entries in listings. Mangoe (talk) 21:36, 26 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Comment: The article itself says the post office was only there for three years. What possibly could have happened in three years? James.folsom (talk) 08:31, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Commnet: Hackett Kansas has been removed from the national maps database, so ref 1 is a broken link now. I'm removing that reference.James.folsom (talk) 15:57, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete: The USGS no longer has a record of this site, so we only have a list of post offices and user provided coords for the place. I've looked for an hour+ in the Wikipedia libray and my own resources and can find no additional sources. It's not legally recognized so it's not presumed notable, an it only had a post office for 3 years so it's not a long lasting place. It simply cannot meet WP:NRV.James.folsom (talk) 17:45, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
