• Replace content with a {{copyvio}} template, as per the usual procedure. :-) — RJH (talk) 22:12, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Looks like it has been cleaned up nicely. I don't have any issue with certain institutions, such as Secondary Schools, getting a default status of notable, given that they meet some basic criteria. (Geographic locations appear to receive similar treatment.) Since we don't have such an agreed criteria, I'll just keep using my own for now. In this case my preference is keep. Thank you. :-) — RJH (talk) 18:05, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep clearly established precedent and consensus over the past 2 years not to delete high school articles on wikipedia.--Nicodemus75 02:27, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - --Klemen Kocjancic 06:15, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep as I think it was just the history that was a copyvio, which has been removed. If there's still a copyvio, then please put the {{copyvio}} tag in place.. --Rob 06:23, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Not notable. Just another school. -- GWO
• Keep per Wikipedia:Schools/Arguments#Keep. Just another obviously notable school. Silensor 07:38, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per Wikipedia:Schools/Arguments#Delete, which pretty much means that my argument is pointless. WP:SCHOOL is not a policy, and the words "high school" don't make a school notable. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 09:41, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
• keep and please help reduce systemic bias this singapore high school is important Yuckfoo 16:44, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep as above to help reduce the systemic bias against high schools in general on Wikipedia. Capit 17:22, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep ^^ -- Librarianofages 02:34, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and allow for organic growth. Secondary schools are notable, WP:SCHOOL not becoming policy is irrelevant to that point. Bahn Mi 21:58, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
