WP:NPLACE says "Named natural features are often notable, provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist. This includes mountains, lakes, streams, islands, etc. The number of known sources should be considered to ensure there is enough verifiable content for an encyclopedic article. If a Wikipedia article cannot be developed using known sources, information on the feature can instead be included in a more general article on local geography. For example, a river island with no information available except name and location should probably be described in an article on the river."
I suggest that there are no other details to write than the name and location on nautical maps. There isn't much else that could be said; it's a rock off an uninhabited island which is part of an almost entirely uninhabited island chain in Antarctica. JMWt (talk) 15:35, 14 February 2023 (UTC)

- So merge into Cape Lindsey and redirect article, rather than trying to delete the content... ♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:42, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
- There is nothing on this page that isn't already on Cape Lindsey. Personally I have my doubts as to whether that is notable either, quite possible that they should both be merged (if there is anything left to merge) to Elephant Island JMWt (talk) 17:11, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
- That's because I added the information myself yesterday! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:09, 16 February 2023 (UTC)

- Delete The GNIS was mass-imported into Wikipedia with several thousand entries for Antarctica places. Very few are significant entities (lots of small rocks, cliffs, etc) and few have any significant coverage about them, only that that someone put it on a map with a name.

- Delete or redirect to Cape Lindsey per nom, there is nothing to merge. Hut 8.5 18:24, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
- Redirect to Cape Lindsey. As mentioned earlier, there is nothing to merge, as the information is already at the target article. Joyous! | Talk 20:11, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
- Delete - Insignificant mass-created geographical feature. This doesn't really deserve a mention at the Cape Lindsey article either, since it's not prticularly close and doesn't have any significant coverage to establish WEIGHT. –dlthewave ☎ 13:43, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
- Redirect. The mention of these rocks in place at the Cape Lindsey article seems appropriate. Thanks User talk:Dr. Blofeld for adding that, to facilitate settlement of this AFD. (It was worth merging, and it has been merged, so "redirect" now rather than state "merge", right? Or should it be "merge" to reflect fact that a merger happened as part of this AFD?) "Cruiser Rocks" seems like a cool name to me, BTW. --Doncram (talk,contribs) 21:43, 20 February 2023 (UTC)
