[edit] LearnNet merger

I feal that it would be more appropreate to leave these two articles separate. If any merging is to be done it should be to include LearnNet with an Argyll Centre article sine LearnNet is a program of Argyll Centre which is a School of EPSB. kc4 - the Server Monkey Enforcer 02:19, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

As LearnNet is a new article, I decided to remove the merge tag, and see how this article grows (as a stand-alone article). I have no huge problem with it being a stand-alone article *if* it is of reasonable length, with some reliable sources added (like news stories about it). Perhaps I acted to quickly in assuming it wouldn't grow, so I'll give it some time and see. In particular, the article needs to better explain exactly what the program is, as I first noticed it under the Category:High schools in Alberta and then I read it's offered *through* a school. So is it a school, or is an access vehicle to a school? If you asked a user what high school they attended would they name a school with Edmonton Public Schools or would they say "I attend LearnNet" or "I'm alumus of LearnNet"? This isn't made clear. Lots of schools have online systems, that allow remote access, but we don't give articles to the online system (just as we don't give articles to buses that kids to a school the old-fashioned way). Anyway, if the article is expanded/improved, this may all be clear, and it would be clear why the article needs to stand-alone. --Rob 04:28, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
