[edit] Cypress Falls High School

Content is "Cypress Falls High School is a high school located in the suburbs of Houston, Texas. About 3,000 students attend this school, which was created in 1990. It handles grades nine through twelve. It is part of the Cypress Fairbanks Independent School District. Its current principal is Dr. Robert Worthy, Ph.D." In other words, there is absolutely nothing to distinguish it from the tens of thousands of other high schools. Non-notable, delete.

• Keep and expand. High schools should not have to pass a notability test. It needs more verifiable information, yes. This will be provided soon enough, provided 15 more schools aren't added in the next two days. --BaronLarf 04:40, May 17, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Concur with BaronLarf. Good stub, shows clear signs of organic growth. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 04:42, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
  • It's hard to imagine what you would consider a "bad stub" to be. Jayjg ^(talk) 20:48, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete unless wikipedia wants a boring, pointless article for every average school in every country. CDThieme
  • There is no reason for Wikipedia to NOT want a boring, pointless article for every average school in the country. Those boring pointless articles will be more neutral than whatever else Google gives a curious person and they can be stubs for as long as it takes for more detailed information to emerge.

• Keep schools. Verifiable and NPOV. First, preserve knowledge, then expand knowledge. Thanks to Neutrality, I've had no time for adding content today. --Unfocused 05:22, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

• Keep -- Longhair | Talk 16:57, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep schools. Inherently notable (expect to be seeing this posted quite a few times). R Calvete 19:09, 2005 May 17 (UTC)
• Delete. Useless collection of generic facts about an insignificant school. This is not an encyclopedia article. Individual schools are not inherently encyclopedic and there is nothing to distinguish insignificant schools like this one from thousands of nearly identical schools around the world.

• Delete. Non-notable and useless vanity. Yawn. Sarg 14:39, 18 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and expand. Notability is not an official criteron for deletion. Additionally, why is this school not notable, even though it has affected thousands of lives, whereas some pokemon fan-fiction site doubtlessly has its own article? --Zantastik 02:47, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Point me to one and I'll Vfd it for you. I doubt any exist here, but if they do they must BURN! Master Thief Garrett 03:37, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. What is this hoarding instinct among the inclusioniststrivialists? Are pointless articles about Yet Another Indistinguishable Local School some kind of endangered species? --Calton | Talk 04:36, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
