[edit] Islamic Society of Sydney Boys High

The society has had only one mention outside of the school and is not that greatly known within the school AMorris (talk)●(contribs) 06:42, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. In addition, much of the information in the article is unverifiable, with only a small amount of information from transcript of the 7:30 Report. In addition, there would be less than 10 people who would know about the society and are not directly connected to the school. --AMorris (talk)●(contribs) 06:44, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete non-notable extracurricular club. --Ezeu 07:31, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as nn, school clubs are nn. --Terence Ong 07:38, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

• "Islamic Society" is codeword for a mosque, ladies and gentlemen. Nonetheless Wikipedia would explode if we tried to list every single church, mosque, temple, etc. in the world. Delete as nn Actually, before saying "nn", maybe we should look at the referenced news reports? Most of the content may be unverifiable but a stub might survive. Alba 12:52, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete nn school group. Mentions on 7:30 report and Miranda Devine do not necessarily make notable--Porturology 15:45, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete nn school group; nn religious local chapter/parish/whatever. Carlossuarez46 20:17, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, NN and advocacy ("Both speakers impressed the audience present, despite campaigns run by senior students in the school to question the validity of Islamic law as a useful means by which to guide mankind's affairs."). ProhibitOnions 22:16, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

• Merge with Sydney Boys High School given that it has received some attention. There is not enough to warrant a standalone article. Capitalistroadster 00:12, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
• Merge as per Capitalistroadster. Excellent suggestion. --Bduke 00:31, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
• Merge small verifiable parts, delete article JSIN 12:57, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Australia-related deletions. -- Capitalistroadster 00:20, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
• merge to Sydney Boys High School or keep please do not erase it Yuckfoo 01:13, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, as I would think the media coverage might have been in response to the 2005 Sydney race riots, thus saying Sydney's people are not racist. I don't think the group itself has any notability, and it will open the main school article up for loads of vandalism/cruft from students. Harro5 10:43, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete nothing to merge. Doesn't seem to merit more than a reference to its title. See WP:NFT. savidan^{(talk) (e@)} 04:48, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
