I have concerns about the large number of similar articles that have been sent here over the last year or so. This article is cited almost entirely by examinations of maps and/or gazetteers, and the only other source is a collection of works on local place names. I'm not sure this meets NOTE, and this is one of the few that has anything like an external reference. My street is on many maps as well, and even appears in the local newspaper, but that doesn't make it NOTE. What is the bar here? Maury Markowitz (talk) 13:22, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
