The 1924 Premiere Atlas of the World gives Arbon a population of 340 and Pauline a population of 184 https://www.google.com/books/edition/Premier_Atlas_of_the_World/WqRRAQAAMAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&bsq=arbon on pages 180-181.  is thus satisfied: "Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low." The area obviously had a major population collapse, as my 1960 World Book Encyclopedia lists Arbon with a population of 10... but still does list it. It would be odd for a traditional encyclopedia to cover a subject we do not. The 1918 Utah Genealogical Historical Magazine, volumes 9-10, describes Arbon as a small settlement and gives some history. https://www.arbonvalley.com/history/areas/pauline-and-west-fork/ This site gives details about Pauline, including the sudden reduction in its population. And yet, these communities still share a school and a post office. The county these communities are in, Power County, has a http://pwr.stparchive.com/search.php?newspaperCode=PWR free newspaper archive which mentions Arbon and Pauline frequently, including, for example, news stories about the Arbon Farm Bureau and the Pauline School http://pwr.stparchive.com/page_image.php?paper=PWR&year=1956&month=12&day=27&page=5&mode=F&base=PWR12271956P05&title=The%20Power%20County%20Press. We should not be judging notability solely based on Google Maps searches of the 2021 state of these communities. These were notable communities in their time, and |notability is not temporary. It is definitely possible to write quite a bit more about two communities which together once may have had more than 500 people, and about which there is a free archive of news stories which any editor can access. My AAA Road Atlas has no confusion about where these communities are: Pauline is at the junction of the Arbon Valley Highway and the Bannock Highway, while Arbon is about 8 miles to the south on the Arbon Valley Highway
