Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Village of Martinsville
unless there is a plausible merge target. Appears to have ample independent coverage. Notability is not remarkability. On a broader point, |notability is expressly about how information should be organized on the wiki (i.e. what gets its own article vs. being addressed within a broader article), not whether it should be included at all.  The real problem seems to be that, here as in so many other parts of the project, we are missing multiple important links in the topical chain. For example, this would merge nicely into Retail in Martinsville, Virginia or Commercial real estate in Martinsville, Virginia. But until articles on those important and indisputably notable topics are created, I see no reason to delete this one, which has clearly benefited from thoughtful and conscientious editing over many years
