[edit] B. C. Muslim School

Not a notable school. Phoenix Hacker 09:06, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete nn school. Carlossuarez46 17:41, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Fails the test of another editor that I have taken to heart. Agent 86 17:51, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. I've listed the school at WP:EiC#Cleanup needed. This is what should be done versus deleting school articles and having to start over. --Stephane Charette 17:57, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep for reasons documented at Wikipedia:Schools/Arguments#Keep. Normally we try to improve and expand articles rather than delete them. Silensor 18:07, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per Silensor. The consensus of the community is clear, and that is to keep every piece of information on a school, and all of these AFDs isn't going to change it. --ForbiddenWord 19:06, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
  • If there was a "clear consensus", then we wouldn't have constant AfDs that end with "no consensus" outcomes. Please don't claim there's a consensus when there isn't. — Haeleth Talk 20:33, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
    • The clear consensus is publicly available at this page. The throne of deletionism is not as mighty as it once was. --ForbiddenWord 23:03, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
      • Comment Please see WP:POINT. Also, that list does not prove that there is a consensus (the result of a no-consensus AfD debate is "no consensus", not "keep", even though the article is still kept). --Coredesat talk. ^_^ 00:58, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
        • Comment- I am not disrupting Wikipedia in making my point. In fact, as that guideline says, I am stating my point in as blunt a term as possible. Please do not refer me to policy if I am not in violation of it. --ForbiddenWord 14:03, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, non-notable private school, maybe an merge and redirect to the the town. Jaranda ^{wat's sup} 19:40, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, appears to be an established and verifiable school [1] and thus necessary to encylopedic coverage of Islamic education in Richmond. Bit of a merge/redirect candidate at the moment per WP:SCHOOLS. Kappa 19:45, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Encyclopedic coverage of Islamic education in Richmond would consist of an article on Islamic education in Richmond, not on individual schools. — Haeleth Talk 20:32, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
  • And it wouldn't discuss this school? Kappa 14:34, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
  • I may be wrong on this, even though I live in Richmond, but I think Islamic education in Richmond is the school. I can't think of anyplace else. -→Buchanan-Hermit™/?! 00:52, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and allow for organic growth. Bahn Mi 21:50, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete the individual school is NN --Musaabdulrashid 22:12, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Keep --Yunipo 22:58, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. A comprehensive school is notable. Erechtheus 23:51, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, the school itself is not notable. WP:SCHOOLS is a failed guideline. --Coredesat talk. ^_^ 01:01, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
• Strong keep. This is actually most likely the largest private Muslim-oriented school in the Greater Vancouver area. -→Buchanan-Hermit™/?! 01:29, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Non-notable. (WP:BEEFSTEW) -- GWO
• Keep Schools always have a place in Wikipedia. Better try to expand than delete.Mikeeilbacher 19:23, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and expand. Piccadilly 13:43, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
• Undecided - isn't the School Project mostly for US schools? Those are the ones that User:RJHall rallies people to vote to keep. Orangehead 15:22, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
  • According to {{WPSchool}} the schools project is "an attempt to write quality articles about schools around the world". There is a separate WP:BIAS project which would be very unhappy if we only kept schools in the USA. Kappa 16:15, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Vegaswikian 00:34, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per the outcome of the school wars. Gazpacho 19:24, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
