Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/West Baker, California
to Rio Tinto Borax Mine. No http://pbbooks.com/caindex.htm post office.  West Baker was at best an interim name of a mine and the locale West Baker is not notable, or is superseded by another article.   I found no evidence of any settlement at this locale, I found no articles about "so and so living, dying or visiting West Baker".  West Baker is not listed in http://ghosttowns.com/states/ca/casanbernadino.html ghosttowns.com (a fairly definitive though not necessarily ).  Searching newspapers.com for ' "West Baker" in California ' yielded hits for "West Bakers.", which is probably West Bakersfield.  Searching newspapers.com for ' "West Bakers" Borax ' yielded a single mining article: https://www.newspapers.com/clip/67176864/conspiracy-charged-in-borax-suit/.  Searching newspapers.com for ' "Suckow Mine" in California' yields a number of hits, the best is a https://www.newspapers.com/clip/67177861/suckow-mine/ History the Suckow Mine. That article does not mention West Baker, so it is no help for this article and the Suckow Mine is mentioned in the Rio Tinto Borax Mine article.  Searching for "West Baker" should not be confused with Baker, California, which is much more well known.  Presumably, West Baker is west of the barely notable Baker, Kern County, California, which at least Durham reports to have had a post office (though that post office is not listed in the http://pbbooks.com/caindex.htm post office list I regularly use).  As West Baker has no legal recognition and the trivial coverage indicates that it at best a non-notable interim name in a mine covered elsewhere, neither #1 nor #2 of  are met.  For there to be an article about West Baker, I'd like to see a  source that indicates that West Baker was more than the interim name for a mine.  Merging to Rio Tinto Borax Mine would be fine
