PROD removal

PROD rationale stated as "Not enough notable content. Not enough Refs. Propose to move to Draftspace."

Proposed deletion is not the way to propose moving an article to draftspace. Per WP:GEOLAND, "Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low." So, if this place exists as a populated place, it is presumably notable. Per WP:CONTN, "Article content does not determine notability" and per WP:NEXIST, "Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article".

If you come across "Woodridge" mentioned in the book, "Origins of North Dakota Place Names"...

That is a typographic error. The book mentions it twice, related to sites in Cavalier county near the border with Towner county. I hunted through the applications for post offices in both counties. Each has one named "WoodBRIDGE," but no "WoodRIDGE." Oona Wikiwalker (talk) 12:01, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
