[edit] American International School Hong Kong

American International School Hong Kong (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

No claim to notability has been established. Just another international school in another foreign country. Luke! 23:39, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related pages because they are all international schools in Hong Kong with no assertion to notability.

California School (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Korean International School (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Yew Chung International School of Hong Kong (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Hong Kong-related deletions. -- Luke! 23:47, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
• Keep some, delete one:
  • Keep Korean International School, has news coverage. Even got themselves investigated by the ICAC, according to these (Korean) newspaper articles: [1][2]. Then again, every man and his dog get investigated by the ICAC these days ...
  • Weak keep American International School [3] seems to get some GNews hits too, though there doesn't seem to be as much to say about them.
  • Not sure about Yew Chung, but the chain as a whole may be notable where its individual branches are not
  • Delete California School, which seems the least likely to be notable; based on their official website, they appear to be a one-room operation running out of a building on Nathan Road. [4]

Anyway, putting these as a bundled nomination doesn't seem to have been a particularly good idea, the only thing they have in common is that they're all "international" schools located in the same city. cab 01:12, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

• Keep both the American International School and Korean International School articles since those schools have received fair news coverage. I'm undecided on the last one, a merge perhaps? Burntsauce 20:42, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
• Keep Some Keep all but the california one, the others could be notable, especially in Hong Kong.Mbisanz 05:30, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
• Comment on Yew Chung International School of Hong Kong --- found an article on them through CQVIP (sorta the JSTOR of mainland China) in an academic journal put out by the Shenzhen Department of Education ... dunno how high their inclusion standards are, and I can't access the article itself, so I don't know whether it's just boosterism by an alum or something.

• keep please for systemic bias concerns these schools are important to their communities yuckfoo 06:15, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
• Keep some, merge some. My sympathies go to the closing administrator who has to wade through this multi-nom to find some sort of consensus. RFerreira 22:41, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
• Delete California School as unsourced and non-notable, Keep the other three. Ohconfucius 05:40, 1 September 2007 (UTC) Ohconfucius 05:40, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
