[edit] Sarina State High School

Sarina State High School (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Nothing to suggest this school is notable beyond being a school. Note also the article explicitly states it is below the expectations of other schools. Contested prod. Denni^talk 05:58, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

• Delete NN school. Article basically just says that the school exists. TJ Spyke 06:03, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
• Delete as the article fails to meet notability criterion, as well as failing to attribute the sources used to create the article. Kyra_~(talk) 08:51, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
• Delete YET ANOTHER piece of blatant school advertizing. I am sure users and sysops are tired of deleting this junk (pardon the use of such language) from Wikipedia (I certainly are tired of contributing to discussions on it).—The preceding unsigned comment was added by ANHL (talk • contribs).
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Schools-related deletions. -- Noroton 21:21, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
• Weak Delete All schools are notable but this is clearly just some copied text from a site. It needs expanding and some more sources, if so ill change to keep.LordHarris 00:15, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
• Keep and cleanup. Actual school with available sources. Capitalistroadster 01:42, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Australia-related deletions. -- Capitalistroadster 01:42, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. NOT an advertisement, the article basically says "What a shit school don't go there". Delete it and let someone interested in the place write a NPOV article. Only contribution by User:Twigz o war who has no talk page and should have been warned for vandalism. Only other contributions have been similar vandalism by anon IP's, and deletion-related tagging.Garrie 03:26, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
• Delete If there isn't an editor out there who will maintain it, then it will just attract vandals. I'm all for keeping high school articles, but I'm beginning to think one of the practical criteria needs to be that the article won't just be a spot where vandals hang out, blighting the neighborhood. So an editor needs to be there to police it. I see no evidence of that in this case, so bulldoze it. Maybe one day it will be rebuilt by someone who will give it the care it deserves.

• article has had rubbish removed and been referenced at this point
• Keep Delete - I've removed the weasel bits, and found at least one notability reference ( in the article now ). Will try to get more but on the face of it, seems a notable high school. 592 google hits and over 60 referring to awards ( many will be student awards but at least one is an award for the school ) - Peripitus (Talk)...After some searching I can find nothing else of note except the two added references. No news articles in the last few years, no books on the school and no mentioned notable students - Peripitus (Talk) 10:18, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
• Delete - I don't see anything particularly notable about this school. Lankiveil 08:15, 9 March 2007 (UTC).
• Keep Has potential to be expanded, or at the very least, merged. It actually has sources! Notability is a failed criterion that never had consensus. The article shows no indication of advertisement. SmokeyJoe 01:53, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
• Keep - the article was created less than a week ago and needs to be given a reasonable time to find editors and develop. Already being expanded and looks notable enough for an article. I have added an agricultural initiative. TerriersFan 04:00, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
• Keep This is a stub with potential for development - clearly some people here don't understand the stub concept. School articles are important and high schools are notable. Constant vandalism is not a reason for deletion, otherwise there would be no Bush article. Ardfern 23:03, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Unlike the other school article currently up for AfD, this one fails WP:N. This article seems more appropriate for the new MySchool wiki. (Please excuse the lack of content there, it just got off the ground.) --Butseriouslyfolks 23:24, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
  • P.S. Nobody had to ask me to come here. --Butseriouslyfolks 23:27, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
