Haydite, Missouri

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

Does not meet WP:NGEO. Satellite image does not show any community. The most significant structure is a plant of BUILDEX] that makes "Light weight expanded shale (Haydite)". Not a legal recognized populated place or anything else that would justify an article. MB 03:48, 15 June 2022 (UTC) Seems to be either a quarry or mine location with associated support buildings and rail sideing. Should be notable as a quarry/commercial site with potential if sufficient referencing is available. Vsmith (talk) 14:36, 16 June 2022 (UTC)

 * I'd like to hear from the article creator on this one, but I'm not finding much besides this concrete plant producing Haydite that opened in what appears to be very close to the same area as this location shortly after WWII. The concrete/aggregate product does create a good bit of search engine noise though. Hog Farm Talk 04:09, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
 * That article shows the product (Haydite) was named after its inventor (Steven Hayde). Then the plant was built in 1947 in New Market, Missouri. I can't verify the GNIS entry either. Perhaps the intersection is called Haydite by some because of the plant, but that does not make a community. MB 04:51, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete; I've been unable to find anything that demonstrates the presence here of anything other than the rail siding and the aggregate plant. Hog Farm Talk 03:05, 16 June 2022 (UTC)
 * delete sorting through the topos, there is one which places "Haydite" at one end of the siding for the quarry. It's clearly a rail spot, not a town, of which there is no evidence at all. Mangoe (talk) 05:39, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
 * It is very uncommon for a quarry to show notability. Mangoe (talk) 16:25, 16 June 2022 (UTC)
