[edit] Forest Glade Primary School

As I understand it, primary schools are not considered notable on WP. Prod was removed by author, so sent to AfD HumbleGod 22:31, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per nom.--blue520 23:06, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Colleges are notable, some high schools are notable, but primary schools aren't inherently notable unless they did something remarkable besides exist. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 00:39, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, verifiable. JYolkowski // talk 02:02, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

  Not a valid reason to keep anything. Proto///type 10:08, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

• The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth --JJay 20:56, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

• Merge a summary sentence into Sutton-in-Ashfield. — RJH (talk) 02:41, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to Sutton-in-Ashfield. RFerreira 03:29, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, redirect to Sutton-in-Ashfield (where it's already mentioned) to dissuade from recreation. Merge, delete, either, just do not keep. Proto///type 10:08, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, non-notable primary school, no wikilinks and doesn't link to anything except AFD. Catchpole 11:13, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete not all schools are notable no matter what some people say. Carlossuarez46 20:03, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and allow for organic growth. Notability is not a requirement for inclusion. Bahn Mi 20:37, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. While notability may not be a requirement for inclusion, being encyclopedic is. Nothing in this article indicates any encyclopedic value. Agent 86 21:09, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep for reasons articulated at Wikipedia:Schools/Arguments#Keep. As I understand it, elementary schools are notable and should be kept if we ever want to become the sum of all human knowledge. Silensor 17:39, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per Silensor and Bahn Mi. --Myles Long 20:47, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep even though/although Wikipedia:Schools/Arguments#Keep was voted down, its still a very valid argument to keep. JJay is right, our threshold is verifiability, not notability.  ALKIVAR™ 21:39, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep More notable than Star Wars weapons. Osomec 20:08, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
• keep please this information is important and verifiable too Yuckfoo 01:23, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
• Merge into Sutton-in-Ashfield. The amount of human knowledge represented by directory listing of elementary schools is miniscule indeed. Eluchil404 07:52, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Enough said. Since merges are counted as a keep, those are wasted votes to delete the article. Vegaswikian 05:20, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete non notable school Jaranda ^{wat's sup} 06:05, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, non-notable. McPhail 16:11, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Nice stub that could do with some expansion. That takes time - certainly more than the 3 minutes provided to the author before it was tagged for deletion. --JJay 16:18, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete non notable school - primary schools are not inherently notable nor do they have the place in the community of high schools. This school asserts no notability. BlueValour 23:56, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
