[edit] Chanhassen High School

Chanhassen High School (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Wikipedia is not a crystal ball; unbuilt high school, article blatant speculation Matthew Brown (Morven) (T:C) 15:41, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

• Delete - Apart from the speculation, article appears to be a hoax:

"Chanhassen High School is going to have many unique features. Every desk in the school is going to have a platinum trimming with 40 inch rims on the side. The desk has been voted "most likely to be a wheelchair" according to www.district112.org. Every student will also be designated a customized grill."

And:

"On top of the suspended building, there will be a herd of Big Angry Male Flamingos. "They will increase school efficiency by 2000%" says the district survey analyst."

It could probably be speedied as patent nonsense, but I guess we can let the debate run its course. →Bobby← 16:16, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

• Important Note - I've blanked the article since it contains several less than pleasent references to Jewish students ([1] and [2] for example). →Bobby← 16:21, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete due to crystal ball-ism and patent nonesense. Note that I reverted Robertbcole's censorship attempt. — RJH (talk) 16:23, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment - I've gone through and removed the Borat-like references to "Jews" as well as some comments about hippies. There is no need for them here. It is not censorship to remove unneeded profanity. The rest of the article remains in place. →Bobby← 16:29, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per just about every policy and guideline we have. Shimeru 17:05, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Wikipedia is not for things made up in school one day. And I think censoring the article only encourages the kid. Darkspots 01:19, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

• Keep Isnt there a policy somewhere that says "innocent unitl proven guilty" to me that should apply here. This article should be considered true until one of you can prove that this article is false. The fact that some of these things are far fetched dosent mean that they are untrue. So this article should be kept until you are able to disprove the article beyond reason of a doubt. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kungfujesus (talk • contribs).

• • Comment - With extraordinary claims, the burden of proof is on the person making the claim. For example, I couldn't claim that I saw a flying hippo and then create an article on Flying Hippos without first providing proof about the existence of flying hippos. →Bobby← 15:21, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment You might find Burden of Proof a good article to consult. You can see there that the concept of "burden of proof" that you are using applies to the criminal justice system of some countries, but that most other matters have a very different burden of proof. A quote from the article: "The less reasonable a statement seems, the more proof it requires". Darkspots 16:11, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, salt, block, these people are wasting our time. yandman 15:33, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, and salt This article should be deleted as its speculation that isnt even supported by Official(government) documentation, the source cited doesnt have a listing for the school. Due to the comments within the article it should be salted to prevent a repeat of such nonsense. Gnangarra 15:40, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Incredible set of fantasy! Oh, if these skills could only be redirected to do good. Lmcelhiney 15:54, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
