[edit] British Columbia Christian Academy

British Columbia Christian Academy (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Orphaned stub of a school that makes no assertion of notability and has no verifiable information. For those of us who generally feel schools are not notable anyway, this may reinforce that view. Eusebeus 10:18, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete Per nom as Schoolcruft. Lacks WP:V, WP:N, contains no WP:RS, and is just some small grade school in the middle of nowhere. Thewinchester (talk) 15:02, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment: Thanks for being insulting. Article says it's located in Port Coquitlam, 20 minutes from Vancouver. That's not the middle of nowhere. Canuckle 23:54, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete No footnotes, nothing easily verifiable except with a Web search that other editors shouldn't have to bother with. If the creator or someone with an interest won't improve the article enough, it should be deleted. Noroton 16:13, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete. The school's home page is in sharp contrast to this article -- it's actually good quality. But even it makes no good claim to being notable for Wikipedia purposes. Just a good, small school. Canuckle 23:54, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Redirect to Port Coquitlam, British Columbia, as there is nothing with sources worth merging; no valid reason has been offered as justification to not redirect. As a relatively new school, the lack of independent reliable sources is not surprising. The overwhelming majority of high schools will have ample sources to demonstrate notability by any reasonable definition of the term, and this is the exception that proves the rule. For those who generally feel schools are not notable anyway, regardless of the number or quality of sources, anything will reinforce that view. Alansohn 23:31, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. 932 articles on google tells me that there is a decent chance of notability. But the article's notability and potential for notability are two completely different things. And as the article stands right now, there are no legitimate grounds to keep it. Trusilver 04:16, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
