Draft:Faribault, Quebec

This draft has sat for over a year with no substantial edits, and my WP:BEFORE search found no evidence of significant coverage to establish notability. Template:Promising draft cannot be used to postpone deletion indefinitely. –dlthewave ☎ 04:40, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The place is recognized by the Commission de toponymie du Québec, so it passes the governmental recognition test. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 05:17, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Userfy or move to a WikiProject: Draftspace is a holding pen for keeping newcomer junk out of mainspace. If you know what you are doing, don’t use draftspace. SmokeyJoe (talk) 09:06, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete/do not mainspace Existence of a name on a map or in a database of place names is NOT the basis for notability, and I'm baffled where this idea came from. Of couse the toponym commission might record "a railway point" having appeared on topographic maps (Google Maps), but that doesn't mean it's notable, should have its own article, or should be in Wikipedia at all!

Keep, but this has nothing to do with notability. Notability does not apply to drafts. This draft was edited, by the addition of the promising draft tag, a month ago, and so is a live draft. Robert McClenon (talk) 04:48, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - notability does not apply to draft space. Whpq (talk) 05:41, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per above rationales and per WP:NDRAFT.--🌈WaltCip-(talk) 14:39, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per above (harmless geo draft, not worth the effort of clicking the button or discussion thereof). —Alalch E. 17:54, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
