[edit] Inza Wood Middle School

Inza Wood Middle School (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) - (View log)

Contested prod. Completely non-notable junior high school. Editor claims article is being used for a creative writing class, thus it is a vandalism magnet.Katr67 22:35, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

• Delete, no assertion of notability. —ptk✰fgs 22:39, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
• DividedDelete, having one unnoticed article as a vandalism target seems ever so slightly better than having the same folks distribute their vandalism throughout wikipedia. Of course, one can't be sure which inspires more total vandalism. —EncMstr 23:02, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Comment Being a target for vandalism shouldn't be part of my nomination, as this isn't a criterion for deletion. Let's just go with the assertion that most junior high schools are not notable and that I don't think this one is any different. Katr67 23:11, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Agreed, not notable. Opinion changed. —EncMstr 00:05, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

• weak delete: just about school with a computer lab in the united states seems to have an article here. while i agree that this school is non-notable (and the article is poorly written) and should be deleted, i worry that a de facto policy of 'every school has a page' has already been set. -- frymaster 01:08, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete unless evidence of notability is introduced. "All schools are notable doesn;t count. Montco 04:29, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete gently, this is an extreme version of WP:BITE. No harm intended, little done, but this school does not meet our notability guidelines (which are not so inclusive that every school with a computer lab gets to write their own article). I point the teacher to Wikipedia:School and university projects for some advice. --Dhartung | Talk 05:00, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
• Redirect to Wilsonville, Oregon per WP:LOCAL and proposed school guidelines. Yamaguchi先生 00:39, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
• Redirect per WP:LOCAL.  ALKIVAR™ ☢ 02:47, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete - if a well-crafted article were introduced, that would be a different story. I'd suggest that anyone wanting to make a legitimate article start with a 1 or 2 sentence addition to the Wilsonville page, or another appropriate page, and build gradually from there. The case for notability has not been made, and it appears that those wishing to keep the page are opting not to heed instructions to participate in this discussion. -Pete 03:16, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
• deletethere really is nothing notable; if some should be found, which i rather doubt, then the article could be built up again. For those who do think it notable, what exactly in here is it that is notable?DGG 00:26, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
• Redirect to Wilsonville, Oregon per Yamaguchi as well as school and local guidelines suggest. No reason not to. Silensor 00:37, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
• Redirect per WP:LOCAL, Yamaguchi, etc. --Myles Long 02:59, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. No evidence that this school is any more notable than its peers. WMMartin 15:29, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
