I agree with your particular case that this CDP (Census Designated
Place) might be deleted, mostly for the reason that there is a named
town with the same name. A named town has specific borders codified
in state or local statute, making it distinctly real and distinctly

One thing that would help in the editor software would be, once you select a
tag, and list the preset values available, to have the option to list the wiki
descriptions of what those values mean. This should be optional, and should
come up in a separate window so you don't lose track of what

Yes, quality lies in the eye of the beholder. Or perhaps better said in the
eye of the data consumer. Therefore the assessment of quality will depend on
the application and use case you have in mind.
