Stovall, Kentucky

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Also don't think this is a "legally recognized populated place" that would meet WP:GEOLAND. Rennick's Barren County directory mentions a Stovall's Crossing which is a generic point where a road crosses the railroad, and his index says that Stovall was a locale (geography), a type of place that lacks legal recognition as a community. No results for Stovall in Barren County, Kentucky newspapers.com. Topos show a small group of houses where a road crosses the railroad. 1922 source states that Stovall was a place on the railroad with no post office, but nothing more. Passing mention in a soil survey, place not described. Reference to a Stovall Station, I've also found a lot of people from the area with the last name and a few references to Stovall Road. It's a place on a map, but I don't think it's one that meets WP:GEOLAND and WP:GNG is not met. Hog Farm Bacon 03:24, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Delete Lacks significant coverage about the place as a community. Reywas92Talk 19:31, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom,, and my standards. A search of Google news, newspapers, and books yields zero hits. Remaining hits are directory-type lists. Thelma Stovall was a prominent Kentucky politician, and this is impeding research. Perhaps its name is an artifact of Internet coding. Bearian (talk) 00:08, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
