- First of all, no, it's not that reliable a source, as has been proven over and over again. It is not good enough to establish that a place exists on its own. But second, the issue in this case is notability, and by our standards, something it describes only as a "locality", with no other information, is not notable. "Locality", in their terminology, means a place or area which isn't defined by habitation. Our standards are not so low as to accept every word on a map as notable, and that's all that this amounts to: a word on a map. Mangoe (talk) 10:07, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete there is only really one source about this topic and it gives no information other than that the term is used to refer to an empty patch of desert where nobody lives. This is not enough to make the subject notable, for that we need the usual significant coverage in reliable sources and there isn't any. WP:NGEO is very generous towards places where people actually live but that's not the case here. Hut 8.5 14:10, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
