Sunshine, Wyoming

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Two houses face each other, each at some distance from the road, and I'm not finding any indication these are the remains of a town. Searching is maddening due to false hits, but as far as I can I find nothing. Mangoe (talk) 22:12, 27 October 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep The article doesn't say that this is a town, it's only a community. Looking on Google Maps, there seems to be a bit more than two houses, especially further up northeast. Waddles 🗩 🖉 03:22, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
 * "Community" is a WP euphemism for the GNIS term "populated place", but in any case a diffuse sprinkling of buildings isn't sufficient evidence of a town/community/village/whatever. Right now I can't get evidence past "name on a map", which we have almost never accepted as good enough: there are just too many mistakes. Mangoe (talk) 01:59, 29 October 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, RL0919 (talk) 06:11, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete I've removed the "community" label as it was not reliably sourced. Unless good sourcing can be found, this doesn't meet WP:GEOLAND or WP:GNG; pointing at a few buildings on a map and calling it an unincorporated community is not what we do. –dlthewave ☎ 03:15, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete - Not a legally-recognised populated place as required by WP:GEOLAND, not otherwise notable under WP:GNG. FOARP (talk) 17:45, 7 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete. I'll admit that this might be confounded by the extremely common word "sunshine" making it hard to find good results, but all I could find on a newspaper search is that one person was born there once. jp×g 02:51, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
