Walkers Corner, Missouri

 * – ( View AfD View log )

GNIS calls this a "populated place", but I'm questioning that this is a real community. The topos never show more than one residence at the site. The rather comprehensive state historical society handbook doesn't mention it. I'm not finding any meaningful Google books hits. Appears to be the location of an isolated farm. Whatever this is, it fails WP:GEOLAND and WP:GNG. Hog Farm Bacon 01:17, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete I created this article, but looking into it I think it was a mistake. The only mention of this community I could find was the obituary of the owner of a grocery store there, so I'm thinking it's a named crossroads rather than an actual community.

 * Merge into county entry per my post on Sagrada: there's no reason why a suitably-motivated person wouldn't be capable of finding out more about the place, the GNIS entry and historical records pretty reliably establish that the place does/did exist, obviously not a hoax or contentious in any way -- nobody's going to get misled by this article existing whether it's an article unto itself or a subsection of another page. jp×g 05:25, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment: I think it would probably have been better to BUNDLE these nominations, since they all proceed from the same general premises, and arguments that are valid for one will be valid similarly for the others. jp×g 05:25, 27 September 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete This was likely a corner of the road where a Mr. Walker lived, no evidence it was a community, less a notable one. The county article need not mention every non-notable name that has been on a map within it. Yes, someone is going to be misled because this is not a community, the article is downright false with its mass-produced present tense. Reywas92Talk 06:44, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete, articles on counties are not the place to randomly list every single road in an area. Devonian Wombat (talk) 05:40, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
