Another round of California "Places", all of the isolated buildings in forests on the topo maps with little to no trace on aerials and nothing significant on searches except possibly passing references as, well, places, typically as if they were homesteads. The articles are all the most basic sort of GNIS dump and make no claims to notability. Mangoe ( talk) 11:31, 29 April 2020 (UTC) reply

The others in this group:

  • Delete Marble Place per nom. The red link in the template at the bottom can stay. Need more reference and source before grouping it in with officially incorporated communities. As for the others, nominate each at a time. Grmike ( talk) 13:44, 29 April 2020 (UTC)grmike reply

  • Delete all, do not keep links. No evidence these are or were notable communities, per previous AFDs. Reywas92 Talk 20:22, 29 April 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete The M's are all properties, and Old Red Rock Place came up only once in a search and may not be a property but I'm not sure what it is. Further proof GNIS isn't reliable. SportingFlyer T· C 15:27, 1 May 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - More ranches mislabeled as populated places. Since these are/were obviously just ranches, they shouldn't be kept in the "unincorporated communities" template. – dlthewave ☎ 03:12, 5 May 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Comment With regards to the keeping of redlinks in the template, either these are real unincorporated communities, and should be kept regardless of the current state of the article (as AFD is not cleanup and they would pass GEOLAND in that case), or they're not, in which case they should be deleted and removed from the template. Deleting them but keeping the redlinks in the template makes no sense. I'd need to do more research to determine which it is. Smartyllama ( talk) 14:04, 6 May 2020 (UTC) reply
