Unless I'm missing something about wikipedia policies, I don't think we need a 1-sentence encyclopedia entry for every single loch in existence. Wiki2008time ( talk) 03:22, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

- Keep Per WP:GEOLAND. It’s a geographical feature about which more is known than just its name and location. Mccapra ( talk) 04:39, 19 June 2020 (UTC)
- Keep: This article sits within the gazetteer function of Wikipedia. I have also added a reference to the corresponding Gazetteer for Scotland article. AllyD ( talk) 07:51, 19 June 2020 (UTC)
- Keep This is an encyclopedia. It is eminently notable and one in a series of articles, List of lochs of Scotland, still under development. The article is still development. scope_creep Talk 07:54, 19 June 2020 (UTC)
- Wiki2008time, I think it really a good thing to check the sources, when your Afd'ing an article. This loch here, has the remains of a bronze age hut circle village next to it. scope_creep Talk 08:04, 19 June 2020 (UTC)
- Speedy keep The sourcing already in the article clearly demonstrates a GNG pass; GEOLAND is a thing; a quick check on any search engine throws up plenty more sources. The fact that the article is short is no sort of deletion rationale. Suggest this be snow closed by the next passing admin. GirthSummit (blether) 13:54, 19 June 2020 (UTC)
