[edit] St bridget of sweden school

The article is about a small K-8 school in Van Nuys, CA, which seems completely un-notable —Ryan McDaniel 18:12, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

• Keep, schools are generally notable. Accurizer 18:16, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment In my view, it doesn't seem appropriate to delete schools on a piecemeal basis when the community has not arrived at consensus on a policy or guideline, see Wikipedia:Schools. Accurizer 18:38, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
    • Counter-comment While universities, colleges, etc. have plausible claims to notability based upon their age, alumni, research, etc., I just don't see how any K-8 school could possibly be notable for anything other than an unusual teaching method—which this one doesn't seem to have. As an aside, I'd have rejected the proposal you link to as too lenient. —Ryan McDaniel 19:08, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, schools are generally not notable (though the mistaken beliefs of a certain group tends to lead to them being kept anyway, to the shame of the entire Wikipedia project). — Haeleth Talk 18:21, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per Haeleth. Schools are not inherently notable, and each entry ought to be judged on its own merits until there is an agreed policy. In this case, what little there is of this article makes it apparent that it is not a notable school. Agent 86 20:59, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I see a school as I see a business, a person, a song, or anything else. Is there any notability? In this case, no. It's a small elementary/middle school and nothing more. -- Kicking222 21:07, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
• Merge to Van Nuys, Los Angeles, California; just a short mention will do. Extraordinary Machine 23:34, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and cleanup. CalJW 05:50, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
• keep or merge Per WP:SCH near consensus - merges do not require AFD Hipocrite - «Talk» 15:05, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Notable and verifiable. Golfcam 17:42, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment What's notable about it? If anything, this should be merged into Van Nuys, as noted above. The school is not worth an article. —Ryan McDaniel 14:37, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Strong precedent to keep schools and is verifiable.--Auger Martel 11:12, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
