Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sonora Junction, California
No http://pbbooks.com/caindex.htm post office.  Historic topos and this https://www.google.com/books/edition/Biennial_Report_of_the_Department_of_Eng/22DVAAAAMAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&bsq=Hardy%20Station 1908 pub indicate that Hardy Station was at this location.  The 1908 pub says "to Junction, formerly called Hardy Station".  The topos show Hardy Station and Sonora Junction as being two slightly different locations.  Searching newspapers.com for "Sonora Junction" finds https://www.newspapers.com/clip/65921232/surprise-party-and-other-topaz-region/, which has trivial mentions of people living at the Sonora Junction highway camp.  An https://www.newspapers.com/clip/65921310/james-earl-messamore/ obit states that people lived at Sonora Junction.  Newspapers.com offered some other hits, like the $500 bond and a number of mentions of the locale that did not state that there was a community at that location.  Searching newspapers.com for Hardy Station found two trivial hits and another https://www.newspapers.com/clip/65921498/oakland-tribune/ trivial hit that stated "Junction house, known as Hardy Station in the old days".  JSTOR had 13 hits for "Sonora Junction", including a fascinating article about Fremont's cannon, but none of the articles stated that there was a community at Sonora Junction.  JSTOR had 6 hits for "Hardy Station", none of which seemed to apply to this location.  I found no evidence of Sonora Junction nor Hardy Station being legally recognized, so #1 of  is not met.  I found scanty coverage of a community at this location, none of which is notable.  I agree that people lived here, there is just no non-trivial independent coverage of Sonora Junction that indicates that it is notable.  Thus, #2 of  is not met
