 * Comment. Communities are generally deemed wiki worthy, even if they don't have a lot of coverage.  OTOH, I'm not sure this IS a 'community'.  The article itself says it's part of West Des Moines, and doesn't give any indication that it is actually an official governmental polity.  David V Houston (talk) 17:01, 17 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete While communities are deemed notable, this appears to just be a housing development within West Des Moines and isn't notable in its own right based on the lack of third-party sources. It can be redirected to West Des Moines, but it certainly doesn't deserve its own article. TheCatalyst31 Reaction•Creation 17:41, 17 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete Given the lack of evidence that this its own community (rather than merely a subdivision) I'm changing my !vote to Delete (or redirect to West Des Moines), per TheCatalyst31
 * Redirect to West Des Moines, Iowa. Zero independent sources means that this should not be a stand-alone article.  Soome content can be merged.   --SmokeyJoe (talk) 06:07, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
