[edit] Chester County High School

Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information; it reads like a News-story. Additionally, the information is not noteworthy enough to be included on Wikipedia

this was not really readable until today so now it is added to october 1 2005 Yuckfoo 19:20, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

• Keep --It just needs to be cleaned up. Would be good idea to list it on WikiProject Schools or use their guidelines to clean it. I believe that all high schools are notable, even those who have badly written articles. PRueda29 02:26, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

• comment - I just tidied it up a bit, but there is really no more information than can go into an infobox. These school pages are only useful if they have context with other wikipages. This appears to have no context. Any author who creates a school page should be required to also build a page for the school district and describe how all the schools in that district feed into each other. Also, they should make appropriate links to the local community pages that are in wikipedia. Ironically Henderson, Tn does not appear to have a page. If the appropriate context is not there, and no one is willing to do the work to determine the context, I agree that this page, and similar pages, should be deleted until someone is willing to do it properly.

  • OK i found the Henderson page, however, the author has not bothered mention the school on this page. Why make a page if you can't even be bothered to mention it on the town page. These contributions to wikipedia are random events that get lost in the noise and are not helping to improve the product. In my view this is why these school articles keep getting put up for deletion, and why not? If the author can't even be bothered who will rescue this article and do it correctly? If someone cares it will be done correctly the first time until then i see no reason not to delete these contextless schools. David D. (Talk) 17:40, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

• keep please high schools are ipso facto notable if there is a problem we can just edit the article we do not need to erase it that makes no sense at all Yuckfoo 18:49, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

• Keep and kick it over to the high school WikiProject. It's a good start on a good, short article and there are a lot of school article fans who seem to be voting to keep it as well. - Lucky 6.9 22:22, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep — has been cleaned up and the news story removed. Andrew pmk | Talk 02:06, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete yet another school article which cannot or will not go to the trouble of telling us why its subject is noteworthy. Denni☯ 03:44, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Gosh, short but somewhat eventful history. --Tony Sidaway^Talk 06:01, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
  • The only notable fact in the school's history seems to be that it was built on the same site as an older school. The shooting at the local county fair wasn't something that relates to the school in any way other than the principal being more wary because of it, as far as I can tell. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 09:23, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete owing to a complete lack of a claim of notability. I don't think school articles that would be CSD A7 candidates if they were about people should be kept. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 08:45, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
