Jolly, Kentucky

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Rennick's index calls it a locale, the definition of which excludes places that are legally recognized populated places, which means a probably WP:GEOLAND failure. Topos show a between 1-5 houses at the area, depending on how large of an area around the name you assume is Jolly. Newspapers.com brings up a couple mentions of Jolly as a local landmark (such as something being three miles north of Jolly), but I've found nothing either there or on Google books suggesting there was a legally recognized community here. Lacking proof that this passes WP:GEOLAND or WP:GNG, it can't really remain. Hog Farm Bacon 17:12, 2 November 2020 (UTC)

 * Weak delete There's at least some indication a place called Jolly existed at this spot, but I'm having trouble getting it past WP:V as well. SportingFlyer  T · C  01:05, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
