@Jfire - all of the sources you've posted here consistently describe this as a mill, not as a community. The appropriate notability standard for a mill is WP:NCORP. Alternatively, taking the fire as the subject of the article, it would have to pass WP:NEVENT. How does this article pass either of these? Even if it were a community, since there is no legal recognition, it clearly does not pass WP:GEOLAND. FOARP (talk) 11:31, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
