Deletion of Knob Lick, Estill County, Kentucky

Comment: I'm not sure if it qualifies per / or not, but I think it may, so I'm going to offer some information here. In the https://www.google.com/books/edition/Report_of_the_Geological_Survey_in_Kentu/dtVAAAAAcAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=knob+lick+estill+county+kentucky&pg=PA582&printsec=frontcover 1850s geographic report nom mentioned, the author did NOT indicate it was a small stream. On pages 139-141 they recount surveying to locate sufficient salts or ores in the knob for extraction. (In Kentucky, a "Knobs region|knob" is a type of hill.) They found ''some'' salts in some of the springs and sampled uphill of them. The language used indicates that "Knob Lick" referred to a more extensive area, possible the entire knob — "At Knob Lick the summits are... while the creeks, at the base... If there are any veins of lead ore in the Knob lick country... a line of disturbance runs through the Knob lick country..." So to me, it seems like this "area" was called Knob Lick for almost '''two hundred years''', and though may have been extremely rural in the 1850s, was definitely settled by the mid-1900s. This article http://baptisthistoryhomepage.com/ky.estill.providence.bio2.html has a mention of an unincorporated community thusly: "was born ... 1943... his parents moved to the Knob Lick section of Estill County, Kentucky. He attended the Knob Lick School for eight years ... served the following churches as pastor: Knob Lick Baptist Church, 1962-1963". In Kentucky a "Mineral lick|lick" is a common name for an area where wildlife gathered to consume naturally occurring minerals or salts, either pulled from the Karst|underground limestone by Spring (hydrology)|springs or occurring in the soil where animals would paw at the ground then lick it. These were natural hunting grounds and were given distinct names to aid in communicating a location. This university article describes it similarly. https://www.uky.edu/KGS/education/did-big-bone-lick-map.php A Kentucky lick is not the same as the Anglo-European term Lick (stream), but fits in with the Mineral lick article. How this stub-article stacks up with , ... I'm not sure (no experience on this), but I'm going to vote Keep — on the basis that it is a longstanding named natural geographic area
