I'd set the bar lower. 70%. Maybe even 50%.
This does remind me of the time I wrote an article about a minor New Zealand skifield, and it was AfD'd on NN grounds. However, every single other skifield had an article, and was apparently notable. It sort of made that skifield notable by virtue of its unique status of non-notability...
Which is why we have articles on tiny townships, on nonentity politicians, on Popes who never even got ordained and died after five weeks*. Because being able to say "we have them *all*" makes us a better encyclopedia.
Hell yeah.
