[edit] Lake Cargelligo Central School

Lake Cargelligo Central School (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Non notable school in Australia Vicer 10:47, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

• Delete - non notable and no sources or references whatsoever. Jayden54 11:00, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, As this is a high school (it states that it goes up to Grade 12), it automatically qualifies. This is a standard known basis for inclusion. Nlsanand 15:17, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment - doesn't the school have to be notable in some way? Otherwise every high school in the world would be able to get an article. Jayden54 15:57, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment - As Jayden points out, there is no such guideline that "automatically qualifies" high schools. WP:SCHOOL has kicked around a bit but is not policy. →Bobby← 15:59, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment Yes, I am saying that every high school automatically qualifies. At least, that's what I've noticed the policy to be in a bunch of these AfD debates. Notability is theoretically established by the fact that it is a high school. Nlsanand 05:01, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - The article needs cleanup, but with a little tweaking it can be a fine article. I'll do a little tinkering now. →Bobby← 15:59, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment - I'm having a bit of trouble finding good info on the school at the moment since I'm at work and I have limited access. At the moment I would recommend that we wait a while to see if anyone comes along with some notable alumni or events to spruce the article up. Keep in mind that it's only been around for a couple of weeks, and the original author might be planning on adding much more. I would also propose thinking about a possible merge to NSW. We could create a new section for education and start collecting school data. Just a thought. →Bobby← 16:10, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
• Merge into Lake Cargelligo, New South Wales where it is already mentioned. — RJH (talk) 18:32, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete/Merge Does not appear more notable than any other high school. Stammer 20:33, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
• Merge to school district, if possible. Otherwise, delete. This article needs more than cleanup (there's precious little to clean up) - it needs information. It's also been my experience that few people who create a school stub ever come back later to add more. Denni ^talk 00:23, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

• Comment Mate this is about an Australian school. DXRAW 11:32, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

• So? JoshuaZ 13:19, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

• We dont have school districts. DXRAW 20:11, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Ah. Thanks, that's a good point. Then it should be merged with the locality as some others have discussed. JoshuaZ 20:17, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

• Merge with Lake Cargelligo, New South Wales or school district. I have come up with a couple of references to it namely a ranking as the top school in its region in the 2005 HSC [1] and a visit by the Governor of NSW Marie Bashir in 2002 but nothing that would warrant a standalone article under the relevant guideline.

• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Australia-related deletions. -- Capitalistroadster 02:00, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
• Merge per Capitalistroadster. JROBBO 02:14, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
• Merge/Redirect to Lake Cargelligo, New South Wales. Despite the fact that it's a high school, there is not enough meaningful content at this point. Redirect will allow history to be retained and allow for expansion to a full article in the future as sources and additional information become available. Alansohn 05:18, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
• Merge I've added a sourced note about the school being part of a program to help students from low income backgrounds but the school is merely mentioned on a list of 74 schools that are part of the program. There really isn't anything else I can find to say about the school. JoshuaZ 05:22, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to Lake Cargelligo, New South Wales until it can be expanded on its own. Silensor 07:12, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
• Keep DXRAW 11:32, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment Any reason for that opinion? JoshuaZ 13:19, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
    • Yes 20:13, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
      • It would help if you explained what it was. JoshuaZ 20:16, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete nn school. Carlossuarez46 22:30, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
• Merge, does not seem to meet WP:SCHOOLS3, but probably worth a mention in the local town's article. Lankiveil 07:04, 1 December 2006 (UTC).
• Merge per Capitalistroadster. - Mgm|^(talk) 11:44, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
