"Named natural features are often notable, ''provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist''. [...] 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".
