Unable to find even a single mention of this in Google, newspapers.com, GBooks, or anywhere else, much less one that corroborates claim this is a ghost town, other than the title of this video. 1972 topo has it in small sans serif font not used for populated places, matching the Gazetteer’s listing as a locale.

  • Delete. In addition to checking Google, newspapers.com and GBooks, I found nothing at all in ProQuest U.S. Newsstream, EBSCO Masterfile and a few other databases. Maybe Comical Turn is a cartography joke, or one of those things that cartographers put in maps to prove a copyright violation? Cxbrx ( talk) 18:05, 15 March 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. Spent some time trying to find primary and secondary sources on the community. It's clear that the area exists, but that it exists and little else. Unless further sources appear, this probably should go. ~ Pbritti ( talk) 02:27, 17 March 2020 (UTC) reply
Which sources suggest that this place actually exists? – dlthewave 04:08, 17 March 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete No sign that this was a notable populated place. – dlthewave 04:09, 17 March 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete Even if the place exists, nothing so far has suggested that it warrants an article. Cheers, 1292simon ( talk) 07:34, 22 March 2020 (UTC) reply
