 * Keep As a legally recognized, populated place. Meets WP:GEOLAND. Smartyllama (talk) 14:37, 15 April 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep Easily meets WP:GEOLAND as an unincorporated inhabited community. See: Jermantown, Virginia, Kernstown, Virginia, and Lick Skillet, Virginia for comparable communities. ClaudeDavid (talk) 06:30, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Which sources describe this as an "unincorporated community"? Currently the only source is the GNIS database, which describes it as a "populated place" and is notorious for mislabelling. I couldn't find coverage of civil war battles, name origins or anything else that would put it on par with other notable places. –dlthewave ☎ 12:46, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete GNIS listing is not legal recognition. Subdivision/neighborhood archive source fails GEOLAND2, lacks coverage. Reywas92Talk 00:00, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - subdivision, no evidence this is a legally recognized place of its own. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 05:13, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
