Calhoun, Kansas : It doesn't show up on any topo or aerial back into the 1950s and the GNIS link is no good (no ID).

Shellwood ( talk ) 00:38, 20 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] This one is easy.   This is another ghost town lie.  Calhoun ; township in Cheyenne County; area, 54 square miles; population 253.  — Gannett 1898 , p. 47 harvnb error: no target: CITEREFGannett1898 ( help ) It's the only Calhoun there.   No town.   No village.   None of the history books records anything else, moreover, except that before 1858 this was the name of Jackson County, Kansas .   But that would correctly be a redirect at Calhoun County, Kansas .  Uncle G ( talk ) 02:26, 20 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] references Gannett, Henry (1898).  A Gazetteer of Kansas .  Bulletin.  Vol.  154.  United States Geological Survey .  OL 20596112M .  Merge with Calhoun Township, Cheyenne County, Kansas .  The post office information and the 1898 population figure would improve the township article.  Eastmain ( talk • contribs ) 07:44, 20 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] There is no 1898 population figure in the article at hand.   This proves my point.   The article doesn't even have content about the township.   Unless you think that a population of 0 is a true fact about Calhoun Township, Cheyenne County, Kansas .   Personally, I'd like Wikipedia's geography to be true .   ☺ Uncle G ( talk ) 09:52, 20 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge with Calhoun Township, Cheyenne County, Kansas .  The United States 2020 census [18] lists total population of 41 in Calhoun township, Cheyenne County, Kansas, as of 2020 Decennial Census.  — Maile ( talk ) 15:44, 20 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Definitely a bizarre game of follow-the-leader starting here.   You know that there's no mergeable content about the township in the article at hand, right?   And that just copying what it does say into another article would flatly contradict the very statistic that you just gave, right?   The content that you want to merge says that Calhoun, which would be the township in the merger target, is a ghost town with population zero .  Uncle G ( talk ) 17:45, 20 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete This township still exists.  It had a post office, hence this article existing due to GNIS.  Anybody looking for the township will find that article, so no need to merge or redirect this.  James.folsom ( talk ) 22:34, 20 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete as said above, this article exists purely because the post office serving the township was here.  This was never a town.  Ghost Towns of Kansas [1] does mention a town of Calhoun that was abandoned after Bleeding Kansas, but it was near Topeka on the other side of the state.
