Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Victoria (Western Australia)
Keeping this article sets a dangerous precedent. Aside from completely ignoring the "significant coverage" requirements of , it would pave the way for the creation of a massive number of stub articles, as happened when somebody went crazy not that long ago and started creating river stubs.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/AlbertHerring In Australia a hill is defined as "a small portion of the earth’s surface elevated above its surroundings, of lower altitude than a mountain. Generally its altitude is less than 300 metres above the surrounding country but this can change in areas of low relief." Geoscience Australia doesn't make it easy to calculate the number of hills in Australia, but the NSW Geographical Names Board says there are 4,217 in NSW. Extrapolating from this a figure of more than 40,000 is likely for the whole country. If "all places with a gazetted name are inherently notable" was indeed true, and I am yet to see evidence of this, we could be in for a lot of stub fixing, as happened with the rivers. Just a thought
