Older topos label this "Blackrock Springs", and indicate it to be a body of water, not a settlement, though they show a couple of buildings there. More recently it has become the site of a fish hatchery, and at that point the topos start to lalbel it just "Blackrock". But all the buildings there are accounted for by the hatchery. It seems certain there was never a "Blackrock" settlement here. Mangoe (talk) 16:02, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete False mass-produced junk, creator should be banned. Reywas92^Talk 18:43, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I'm not sure we should be banning anyone for good faith editing. That being said, there's no evidence of notability for this place. Spiderone 21:34, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This was hardly good faith, he was in fact warned by multiple users when he made them that many, many, many of them were not actually communities yet continued to mass-produce one-liners. He remained defensive when confronted multiple times with how much complete junk he made and has stubbornly refused to acknowledge anything with many notifications for all of these afds and numerous hours of others wasted from so much false and non-notable information added to the project.

Delete. No post office. Not to be confused with Blackrock Well Blackrock Wells. The Story of Inyo has three trivial mentions of Black Rock Springs, which is quite close. GBooks has a number of trivial references. Confirmed that the Black Rock Hatchery is at this location.

About the mass creation of these articles by User:Carlossuarez46, I agree that this user has generated a huge amount of work for many people. I don't know of a way to prevent this in the future, but I'll go ahead and update their talk page with notices about the California articles that are up for deletion. Looking at User_talk:Carlossuarez46, I see there are many AfDs - we should be sure to add others as they occur. Cxbrx (talk) 22:59, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
