A small man-made "landscaping feature" exclusively located within a trailer park in Florida. The three citations all appear to either be clickbait junk, non-substantial coverage, or associated with the people running the trailer park. I'm not finding anything better. WP:GEOLAND treats many lakes as notable, but it seems a touch ridiculous to expand that to "landscaping features" located within trailer parks. Hog Farm Bacon 18:01, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

- Speedy delete I've seen this person's articles before, several have already been deleted. This is a tiny generic retention pond, not a lake.

- Comment: This is an improper observation in a delete discussion. The discussion is about the article, not the author. -- Whiteguru ( talk) 09:54, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
- Comment I am the author of the article in question. I explained in my talk page when the idea of deletion first came up that I had the impression when I wrote this article that the bodies of water would be expanded and that more documentation would be forthcoming. Since none of that happened, I was not contesting a deletion at that time. If anyone has written 200 to 300 articles a handful will be deleted, so I think it misleading to say that several of my articles have been deleted before.

- Delete an unimportant pond, the references are about the surrounding Whisper Lake Mobile Home Community (and don't suggest that the mobile home community is notable either). power~enwiki ( π, ν) 04:34, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete: as above, an unimportant pond. -- Whiteguru ( talk) 09:54, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete Nonnotable feature, but the author's work is generally good. ~ EDDY ( talk/ contribs)~ 02:21, 2 September 2020 (UTC)
