World's first pine tree farm

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

At the moment, this is little more than an essay (WP:NOTESSAY) about the "first" timber plantation. I can only see one mention in a search, and that mention is not from a reliable source. This may warrant a sentence or two at Plantation but nothing more. (Struck because it is clear that this is not true) It also seems as if the text has been copied from somewhere, but I don't know exactly where. Fiftytwo thirty (talk) 00:49, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, this is an essay, not an article. J I P  &#124; Talk 07:51, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, as above  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  10:03, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Reads more like vanity press than even an essay. Was this someone's grandfather? No refs, no evident notability, if it's in the 1920s it's certainly not "the first". Andy Dingley (talk) 12:21, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
