 * Keep and move per SportingFlyer. Satisfies GEOLAND. James500 (talk) 14:09, 22 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment It remains unsourced and not notable as a settlement in its own right. It wouldn't pass review as a new article, for sure. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 14:21, 22 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep and move. In addition to SportingFlyer's arguments and evidences (which I checked and found them persuasive), I see the utility of miniature stub articles like this one for teaching, travel, and research of all types.
