While individual neighbourhoods within larger cities are certainly permitted standalone articles if they can be properly sourced as independently notable in their own right, they are not entitled to an automatic presumption of notability under WP:GEOLAND, or to an exemption from having to be properly sourced, just because they exist. This, however, has been tagged as unreferenced for a full decade without ever seeing a single valid reference added. I'm willing to withdraw this if somebody's actually willing to finally put some real work into it -- but if it's just going to keep lingering around in this state then it needs to be redirected to Ottawa.

Delete - I think being individual neighbourhood doesn't mean that it should be added to encyclopaedia. Vinay089 (talk) 04:25, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per nom. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 14:30, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect per nom. I can find reliable sources to make an article on "Crime in Michele Heights" (or a section within Crime in Ottawa), but little else in terms of an independent claim to notability. An article could probably be made, but would offer little value outside of a broader page on Ottawa. Ajraddatz (talk) 18:51, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. A redirect to Ottawa does not look sensible, as that article does not currently mention Michele Heights, and the article does not contain anything trying to be an exhaustive list of neighbourhoods. List of neighbourhoods in Ottawa and Bay Ward both do at least mention Michele Heights (though no more, and both as "Michelle Heights"), so a redirect to one or other of these might be better - though far from ideal. But there might be nothing better to do, as outright deletion would also not be a good idea - names of neighbourhoods like this are entirely reasonble search terms.
