- Comment: I strongly believe in Wikipedia's goal of being a gazetteer per WP:5P, and so I agree with the rather loose requirements laid out by WP:GEOLAND for named natural features. However, despite what's stated above, there is no presumed notability for named features on a map: GEOLAND requires that "information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist" for named natural features, and "The number of known sources should be considered to ensure there is enough verifiable content for an encyclopedic article." The only source given is a map, which sure enough has the "Rio Caroaebe" on it - so its verified, but that's only enough to ensure its place within the List of rivers of Roraima article. My searches have turned up nothing but wikimirrors (and confirmation from NGA GeoNames that this is a recognized name), so I'm not convinced this is deserving of a stand-alone article as yet. I'm not voting delete, however, since I don't believe that I am able to do a thorough search given my limitation to online sources and my inability to speak Portuguese. Also, because deep down, I hope for the article to be kept. Antepenultimate ( talk) 01:25, 2 April 2017 (UTC)
