 * Delete Almost certainly a hoax. See my comments at Articles for deletion/Maar, North Dakota. Choess (talk) 20:44, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I've added East Wyoming, Rhode Island by the same author based on your comments. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 21:15, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

 * delete both The "switch" could conceivably have been a railroad point, though no map shows it. The other is clearly bogus. Given the circumstances, I would assume both are hoaxes. Mangoe (talk) 22:50, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete for failing WP:V . As with Articles for deletion/Midzemuthleiy, Delaware, this looks like a hoax that made it onto Google Maps. No RS evidence of this place found. • Gene93k (talk) 23:38, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Amending !vote to delete both for failing WP:V and as likely hoaxes. I did not notice that East Wyoming was bundled, but this one is interesting.  The one plausible Google hit only seems to confirm it another hoax supported by user-generated content sites. • Gene93k (talk) 15:59, 30 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Comment: I !voted on Articles for deletion/Midzemuthleiy, Delaware back in 2014!  However, I will say its weird that the article under discussion right now at Articles for deletion/Barberville, Rhode Island was also created by the same editor, and that really is a place.--Milowent • hasspoken  17:21, 2 November 2020 (UTC)
