I don't see how this could possibly meet WP:GEOLAND - finding basically no coverage, GNIS doesn't even know where exactly this is located, and the Ramsey source has only one or two short sentences about it. Pretty much all I've found that unambiguously refers to this place is a single local change.org petition to change the name of this, although I admittedly didn't search too hard under the alternative name.

- Weak delete. The only source I can find is https://collections.shsmo.org/manuscripts/columbia/C2366/crawford-county. Historical societies tend to be considered reliable, but it cites a 1944 Master's thesis, which is available here: https://mospace.umsystem.edu/xmlui/handle/10355/82581 Generally Master's thesis are considered not reliable sources, I think.
- The author was Zimmer, Gertrude Minnie. The only reference I can find to her is here https://www.cozeanfuneralhome.com/obituary/4962168. She was a librarian and a school teacher.
- I downloaded the thesis. It lists the former name once, in a list, with zero context or extra information.
- So we know almost nothing of this place, there is not significant coverage, but WP:GEOLAND has a lower bar, but it still has a bar and that bar is above what we have, in my opinion. CT55555( talk) 05:09, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
