They fail WP:NPLACE and in most of the cases, the articles lack real context and content beyond "it's an X in Y". Mexican states are not that small to qualify an article as La Misión, Northern Tamaulipas. There are 10 municipalities in northern Tamaulipas, exactly where is it located La Misión, Northern Tamaulipas? It's not said beyond the coordinates and basing myself upon that map, it seems to be that that town is in San Fernando, Tamaulipas, which is not at Northern Tamaulipas, but at Central-Northern Tamaulipas. All these articles were created 15 years ago when there were no real guidelines on the creation of minor places like these. Very few minor locations in Mexico (i.e. towns, villages, barrios and neighborhoods) manage to be as relevant as the municipalities in which they are located.

  • Delete All - Fails WP:Geoland#1. Particularly, no evidence in a reliable, independent source that any of these are legally recognised populated communities. The source relied upon in every case is GEOnet Names Server, which (per the RSN discussion) is not a reliable source. One article has two additional sources (a link to the Mexican post-code website and a link to the Mexican statistics office) but it is not clear at all how these sources support the content of that article. One article also comes with co-ordinates, but these appear to be that of an open field next to a single house. These articles were all created by Carlossuarez46 and are hoax/spam articles so bundling is justified per WP:Bundle. Carlossuarez46’s mass-creation of articles eventually led to an arbcom case where they were desysoped, after which he retired under a cloud, and clearing up the mess he created has now been an ongoing task for years.
