Remember, school newspapers are generally not a suitable subject for an entry unless they've received wide press attention. - Mgm|^(talk) 11:04, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

• I deleted it because you were trying to make it come across as a regular newspaper when it's a school newspaper. This particular one doesn't have any reliable third party sources to back up the article and I doubt the worldpress covers school newspapers. That external link and the title you used are misleading. =- Mgm|^(talk) 19:39, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
