  5. Rescue
  6. Salmon Falls
  7. Somerset

Notable, but should be expanded

[edit]
  1. Aukum - should be moved to Mount Aukum, California
  2. Aurum City
  3. Buckeye Flat
  4. Caldor  Done
  5. Cameron Airpark Estates - definitely notable (and very unique); either expand its article or merge it into Cameron Park, California

  18. Garden Valley
  19. Gold Hill
  20. Greenwood
  21. Jurgens
    • [24] not significant coverage, but indicates there was an actual town there. Useful starting point
  22. Kelsey
  23. Latrobe
    • [28] - not RS, but a useful starting point; [29]
  24. Lotus

Questionable notability or needs further investigation

[edit]
  1. Canton
  2. Canyon - need to see if I can find more info than the handful of passing references I've dug up so far
  3. Deer View - Hotel Bret Harte may be notable
  4. Fountain Place - might be notable as a remote Pony Express station high in the mountains. Will investigate further
  5. Golden - almost impossible to use as a search keyword for further investigation.
  6. Green Springs Ranch - probably not notable, but an article with this much content shouldn't be deleted willy nilly. Need to do further research to determine notability. If not notable, should get its own AfD and not be part of a batch deletion.
  7. Jayhawk
    • mentioned in a few times in the Historical Souvenir. If not kept, perhaps redirect to Rescue, California which is nearby
  8. Lake Valley
    • has sufficient coverage to merit notability, but makes more sense to merge it into South Lake Tahoe, California and discuss the history there (Lake Valley was the early name for the valley where SLT is now)
  9. Lawrenceberg
    • [47] - not clear whether it was a town or simply a store with post office attached
  10. Live Oak Bar - might be notable as the second site gold was discovered in California
  11. Mormon Tavern - California Historical Landmark and it has an interesting name. Not much more than that.
  12. Rubicon Springs - similar rationale as Wentworth Springs below, as well as its role in the Stevens-Townsend-Murphy party
  13. Spanish Flat
  14. Wentworth Springs - my gut feeling is that it's barely notable; even though I can't tell yet whether it was a full community or just a lodge/resort, it's far more isolated than most of the others, plus it has some relevance through its connection to the very well-known Rubicon Trail
  15. Urban - like Golden, very difficult to use as a search keyword
  16. Yalisumni - mentioned in a variety of historical documents, need to investigate the relationship between the village and the Maidu subtribe of the same name
