Comment: Having looked at the matter in detail, here's my own view.  Deletion is not appropriate as this is a named natural feature per  and we have more information than general statistics – details of its naming, its geology, its water quality, its protected status and so on.  The alternate view that the topic should be merged into list of lakes of Minnesota does not seem sensible for a number of reasons

Comment: to List of lakes of Minnesota. Obvious , and  very specifically does ''not'' make the same notability provisions for lakes as it does for villages: lakes/rivers etc are 'often notable provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist' and 'the number of known sources should be considered'. In other words, mere existence on a database is not sufficient

Comment: to List of lakes of Minnesota, where all of the reliably sourced information we have about it will be quite at home. Saying WP is a gazetteer doesn't mean every named object needs its own article as per GEOLAND. In this case, it's not even necessary to get into whether or not it's notable (which is not to say I think it's notable) because per  if we don't have much information about it and there's another article that can host it, that's where it should be ''even if'' it's notable. People are scraping every possible detail from various databases and primary sources. That's a sign that there shouldn't be a stand-alone article. Also, I'm adding my comment at the bottom of the thread because this is an AfD. If this section is separate from the AfD, move it to the talk page. &mdash

Comment: I will be honest, I cannot be bothered to read every word above - (seems like a lot of words regarding the notability of a small lake in Minnesota). I think our  is clear in regard to lakes. Per . Named natural features are often notable...This includes...lakes, streams ...etc. We keep lakes
