Fictional location in the GI Joe series. Only secondary source in the article is Pearson's "Unauthorized Guide", but as it's only used to cite in-universe information, it doesn't instill confidence in me that the work discusses out-of universe significance. A WP:BEFORE search turns up nothing substantial in reliable sources that indicates out-of-universe importance. Just because a location is important in it's fictional universe doesn't mean it's a GNG pass. Hog Farm (talk) 20:35, 4 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge to Cobra (G.I. Joe). BOZ (talk) 01:34, 5 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Cobra (G.I. Joe)#Bases, where it is already covered. The fictional location has no notability independent of the fictional group that has its base there, and has no reliably sourced information that would be useful to merge. Rorshacma (talk) 01:45, 5 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect as per above. Dronebogus (talk) 04:10, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect per WP:SNOW. Bearian (talk) 02:39, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Cobra (G.I. Joe)#Bases. It seems that this entire article focuses on what the base looks like and really doesn't have any outside context. There is so much writing that is a plot summary, rather than anything else. 🌴Koridas🌴 (Negotiate) 04:13, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
