No evidence this neighborhood exists -- no sources, no results on Google search, nothing of this name at the coordinates on maps. power~enwiki ( π, ν) 14:50, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

- Comment. I have absolutely no idea how to conduct an effective search for this, but the fact that there is no article in ptwiki seems pretty strong evidence that this is not a thing. AleatoryPonderings ( talk) 15:01, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete very hard to search for because there are a lot of mentions of "village" relating to Rio de Janeiro, but since it's completely unsourced, has no corresponding article in the Portuguese Wikipedia, and doesn't show up on mapping services at the claimed coordinates it's fair to assume it doesn't exist until proven otherwise. The burden of proof for showing this is on those who want to keep or restore the content. Hut 8.5 11:44, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
- Seems to qualify for speedy delete. Glendoremus ( talk) 18:18, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. Seems like a hoax, but in any event, does not meet WP:GEOLAND as an unofficial neighbourhood (according to the article) which fails to meet WP:GNG. -- Dps04 ( talk) 17:19, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
