Housing Developments as Ghost Towns?
So having always heard that ghost towns were former towns, I've noticed a proliferation of former housing developments are starting to pop-up as "ghost towns". The one for Airport_Villa,_Delaware is the latest to catch my eye to make me wonder why it would ever be included as a ghost town. Just my opinion, but I can't imagine it would. If that were the case, someone could start a housing development inside an established city today, abandon the development, and it would count as a "ghost town". There needs to be a line drawn somewhere, so where is it?Superman7515 (talk) 16:07, 26 June 2018 (UTC)

A new newsletter directory is out!
A new Newsletter directory has been created to replace the old, out-of-date one. If your WikiProject and its taskforces have newsletters (even inactive ones), or if you know of a missing newsletter (including from sister projects like WikiSpecies), please include it in the directory! The template can be a bit tricky, so if you need help, just post the newsletter on the template's talk page and someone will add it for you.

Assessment request Scovern Hot Springs, California
Requesting a reassessment of Scovern Hot Springs, California, it would be appreciated. It was a small hot springs resort town and is now a ghost town, with little remaining after a 1971 California wildfire. I improved the article from a three sentence stub-class to a full article today. Thanks in advance! Netherzone (talk) 00:36, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
