  • Delete - nn school. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hyperbole (talk • contribs) 07:09, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep I'm of the opinion that schools are inherently notable. GlassCobra 08:23, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
    • Can you expand on that position? - Revolving Bugbear (formerly Che Nuevara) 13:44, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
      • There's not all that much more to say. Some believe that schools are inherently notable and worth having an article about, some do not. According to WP:OUTCOMES, discussions have schools often are unable to achieve consensus. GlassCobra 14:06, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
        • So in the case of any non-notable school, the default result should always be "no consensus"?--WaltCip 14:28, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
          • Definitely not. The default result should be Keep, because schools are inherently notable. :) GlassCobra 15:25, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
            • No references, no reliable sources, nothing to establish its notability, not even a single secondary source citation.--WaltCip 15:36, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete or Merge into Issaquah School District. At current, schools aren't inherently notable under Wikipedia guidelines (although individual episodes of SpongeBob are--go figure!). But it's a policy that I hope NEVER changes, not because I'm against schools, but because I think the school articles come about as the result of a teacher introducing her/his students to Wikipedia. Thus, the class puts together an article, the students edit it, it's there for all the world to see for awhile, it's saved as part of the school's records... and then it gets deleted . It makes more sense to do that than for the students to play with an existing article, as demonstrated by the Charles Lindbergh page

This one was written in the 2006-07 school year and probably forgotten about. Another class will create a temporary Wikipedia article about Apollo Elementary someday. Mandsford 14:39, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete or maybe Merge like the above user stated. Nothin notable about this school. TJ Spyke 19:31, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete or Merge. Keep opinion appears to be based on WP:ILIKEIT. Vegaswikian 07:10, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
