<div dir="ltr">I would like to remove Machias, Washington
admin_level 8 since it does not exist as a city in Washington.
It has been there for a number of years apparently added by a
bot. I plan to leave it as a CDP locality node. There doesn't
seem to be any chance that it will become a city and will most
likely be annex by Lake Stevens.

i think deleting CDP boundaries that don't make any sense is not
unreasonable.<br>
<br>
i've deleted a couple on that basis.<br>
<br>
also, the boundary import that brought in the CDPs is kind of out of
date;<br>
the census bureau has updated quite a few of them, which i noticed
while<br>
cleaning up borders in eastern NY. <br>
<br>
they probably shouldn't be in an administrative boundary category
anyway,<br>
as they don't have any sort of local governance function.<br>
