This took far too much work, and I still, after looking at several maps and the aerials, have trouble verifying this. There's yet another UN map, which shows a town SSW of Doolow; I also found a US military map in a cache at U Texas. And for the latter, I can find the physical features, and they are more or less where that map says, and the dot from geonames is close by, but, you guessed it, there's no sign of any structures that I can see, only a large empty apparently corralled off area some distance to the east. What do you say about this? I don't have a reference to say that the place is no longer there, but I don't want to say that it is there. And it's obvious that nobody looked at anything, but just took a geonames dump and stubbed an article from it. Mangoe (talk) 12:08, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

- The stubs from geonames being an ongoing issue. I can't be certain if this exists or not really. Prince of Thieves (talk) 17:06, 22 February 2018 (UTC)
