The result was no consensus. No consensus for deletion. Common practice is that all documented inhabited places are inherently notable. (non-admin closure) BusterD (talk) 20:29, 1 October 2011 (UTC)

The result was keep. By mistake, I closed this as "no consensus" instead of "keep." The rationale above makes clear my intention to keep. Given my inexperience with tools and my failure to look back to check on this, I must take responsibility for this foolish error. I thank User:Colonel Warden for pointing this out.

Lord's Bank

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Unreferenced article about a non-notable settlement in Belize. FiachraByrne (talk) 15:00, 25 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - There's no such thing as a "non-notable settlement" and being located in Belize or any other country has nothing to do with notability. This does appear to be the community in this map along Lord's Bank Road.--Oakshade (talk) 23:27, 25 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep per Oakshade - all settlements are notable - and with minimal effort I also found a reference; the nominator would be well advised to check for references before nominating any more articles for deletion lest his/her actions be interpreted as obstructive.

 * Comment When did all settlements become notable by definition? If a settlement lacks the substantial coverage by independent sources that is required by the GNG, I would have expected it to be non-notable. bobrayner (talk) 08:02, 8 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep They became notable when we adopted the custom of not deleting the articles; at this point it's in essence a practical guideline, regardless of formal status. Notable has only the meaning of "appropriate for an article on Wikipedia" More information is of course advisable, but not required.     DGG ( talk ) 18:26, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
