Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Moonshine, Illinois
As far I can comprehend, the nom just throws up Ignoratio elenchi|red herring arguments.  Just because a place is not a census designated place doesn't mean it's not notable.  A place can be notable for many other reasons.  Being featured on the national CBS News Sunday Morning|CBS News Sunday Morning show, featured prominently in at least one book http://books.google.com/books?id=nQZyXu_TshAC&pg=PA92&dq=Moonshine,+Illinois, very extensively in http://www.agriculture.com/ag/story.jhtml?storyid=/templatedata/ag/story/data/agWorld_8817.xml this online article and even featured in the ''Philadelphia Inquirer'' and ''Chicago Tribune'' http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_product=PI&s_site=philly&p_multi=PI&p_theme=realcities&p_action=search&p_maxdocs=200&p_topdoc=1&p_text_direct-0=10B96C9247835700&p_field_direct-0=document_id&p_perpage=10&p_sort=YMD_date:D&s_trackval=GooglePMhttp://www.accessmylibrary.com/coms2/summary_0286-31633050_ITM demonstrates passing .  That the nom doesn't like the reason it passes  ("a national TV reporter liked the burger or conversation they got there") does absolutely nothing to change its notability.  I should also point out that historic towns and cities are still notable for historic reasons
