The result was speedy redirect and merge. While this doesn't fall into any speedy category, I'm invoking WP:IAR and let everyone get back to improving the encyclopedia instead of starting another meaningless argument. JYolkowski // talk 02:33, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Cynwyd Elementary School
Don't anyone say "all schools are inherently notable", because that simply isn't the case. What we have here is a school which fails to assert notability. That it exists is proven by Google, but there's nothing notable about it. The Speedy tag was removed by an editor without comment or the addition of matter asserting notability.

- Merge to locality. Looks coimpletely generic, and we really don't need to know about owlbert. Guy (Help!) 00:03, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
- Speedy redirect to Lower Merion School District Every deletionist is going to point out that this is a non-notable elementary school, and every inclusionist is going to point out that all schools are notable, even when there's little information (and no unique information) in the article. Why don't we just avoid this and redirect to the district? I know this doesn't meet any actual "speedy" criteria, but we should just avoid this debate, which could very easily aggravate many editors (myself included). I would urge deletion, but since the school district has an article, I have no reason not to ask for this article name to be pointed there. -- Kicking222 00:10, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
- Speedy redirect to the district article per Kicking222's reasoning. Non-notable elementary school, and existence is not indicator of notability. Close this AfD before it becomes the usual firefight that all school AfDs end up becoming. NeoChaosX (he shoots, he scores!) 01:03, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
- Speedy redirect per the philosophy above. --Czj 01:46, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
