Pleasant View, Wood County, West Virginia

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This one is very difficult to search for, because there are many Pleasant View, West Virginias. (I found the most for Pleasant View, Jackson County, West Virginia). Topos originally show a school named "Pleasant View School" here, which later becomes just Pleasant View with a church and not much else. I found a few passing mentions to the school and a cemetery here during my search, but most of the rest was for either Pleasant Hill, Wood County, West Virginia or for other Pleasant Views. I don't think this is notable, but if I missed something, please be understanding, as searching is really noisy. If I missed something that demonstrates notability here, I will withdraw.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep - It does appear on the USGS topo map on the South Parkersburg quadrangle. That seems to me to qualify it. -- Orange Mike &#124;  Talk  18:28, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
 * - WP:NGEO states This guideline specifically excludes maps, tables, lists, databases, etc., from consideration when establishing topic notability, because these sources often establish little except the existence of the subject. We need more than just maps to indicate that this site is notable. Hog Farm Talk 18:41, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
 * It's not any of the Pleasant Views in Lippincott's Gazetteer. The cemeteries all appear to be somewhere else.  And I cannot confirm that the Pleasant View farm in an obituary matches this.  This seems to be practically unverifiable. Uncle G (talk) 18:54, 26 April 2021 (UTC)

 * delete The show a common metamorphosis of an isolated school into a town, which consists (until suburbia reaches it) of an equally isolated church which could well be the old school building repurposed. No sign over the years of a "settlement". Mangoe (talk) 03:55, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
