[edit] St. Kevin's Reality TV and St. Kevin's

A video made by students and shown to their dorm - oh, and the dorm in question. This is about as nn as you get. --Doc (?) 00:43, 17 September 2005 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. Friday (talk) 01:08, 17 September 2005 (UTC)

• Delete the film. Student films only require articles if they've had an audience and won awards at major festivals outside their immediate circle of friends. The dorm may be worth an article, I don't know the school, but the section about its nn occupants needs to go. - Mgm|^(talk) 13:07, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete both. The film, per Mgm. The dorm article isn't even appropriately named. Based on its content it should be titled "Six guys who lived in St. Kevin's dorm in 2001-2002". ~ Jeff Q (talk) 13:31, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete and make them clean their bathrooms.  RasputinAXP  talk * contribs 18:13, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, or soon Wikipedia will be useless. We've already got the insanity of people adding non-notable business parks and schools, and now we're adding dorms ! Anyone interested in starting a version of Wikipedia with stricter criteria for what's included, or do we just want to list everything in the world ? Wikipedia isn't an indiscriminate list !

How does the existence of some articles make the rest of Wikipedia become useless? Paul August ☎ 16:56, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

Wait a second everybody. These articles may not interest you. That doesn't mean that they are entirely uninteresting in any objective sense. I am beginning to sense a hint of elitism and privileged snobbery in some of these postings. Christendom may be a small college in the South, but for those who attended it, and those who are interested in it, St. Kevin's is a notable phenomenon. FYI, the videos were shown to the whole college and many alumni and residents of Front Royal.

Agree wholeheartedly with the judgment of that last post. An accredited institution of higher learning merits a post on this encyclopedia, so why can't its dormitories as well? There are those nationwide who have attended this college and lived in this particular dormitory. They are entitled to chronicle the histories of the years in which this dormitory was operational, since there are those who will have interest. Most especially, those who are prospective students or alumni. You all sound extremely supercilious, to say the least.
