Pine Grove, Bienville Parish, Louisiana

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

So far GNIS seems to be doing better in Louisiana than in some other areas, but here we have an entry copied from a book on post offices. There is a Pine Grove Church shown on older maps, and its cemetery shows up on the most recent maps, but there's no sign of a settlement, and the label wanders around considerably before disappearing, suggesting that they didn't real know where to put it. I don't think this is a real settlement. Mangoe (talk) 23:38, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete Nothing found on this location; there are a few houses in the general area but geotag locates to a forest. Existence of a post office does not establish notability as rural post offices in the United States were often private homes or farms, any place where mail could be dropped off.  Not notable.

 * Delete Not notable, not even a settlement. By the way, just before I retired, I spent time in Bienville Parish geological mapping with another geologist. While studying the area of the Bienville salt dome, we used the Pine Grove Church at the coordinates given for "Pine Grove, Bienville Parish, Louisiana" as a landmark to cross-check our GPS in morning before starting work. The Pine Grove Church is still alive, well, and active. However, it is only one of many such churches unassociated with a hamlet, town, or other organized settlement. The community consists of residences dispersed throughout the area along local roads. Paul H. (talk) 01:37, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
