Wiest, California

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This may have been where Mr. Wiest's house once was, though I doubt it: the spot is now occupied by a pair decidedly proletarian properties, and the various references seem to indicate that Wiest held quite a bit of property. At any rate, the topos show buildings there, and across the canal, and while those depictions are pretty questionable when compared with the aerials, it's pretty clear that there wasn't a significant town here at any point, nor can I find any references to same. The reference to Wiest Lake is an irrelevancy given that the lake is over two miles away across the expanse of farm fields. Mangoe (talk) 23:00, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete per Nom and TimothyBlue. While there is some information on this location it is too sketchy, with possible inaccuracies (a source states the town was flooded by a lake, and no real sourcing beyond location information that the place may have existed. These locations do not have the slightest notability for article space. -- Otr500 (talk) 12:38, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
