  • Keep: Notability is not a reason for deletion as per WP:SCHOOL. References should be added to prove notability. --DeadlyAssassin (talk) 09:13, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Strong keep. I am bemused as to why this article should ever have been nominated in the first place. A quick read of the school's website reveals that the school is quite unique. It is the only primary school in the whole world which teaches its children in the Manx language. Sources exist to expland the article, eg here. Searches are complicated because the Manx name has only been in use for the last few years and the school was previously known as St John's School. Dahliarose (talk) 13:21, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Strong keep. This is exactly the type of school that needs an article on Wikipedia. I agree this is an obvios article for help and assistance. I assume the Afd was a mistake. Can you please confirm this by withdrawing the nomination. Victuallers (talk) 15:21, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Strong Keep - a unique school and as such hugely notable. I am AGF and assuming that the nominator missed that it is the only school that teaches solely in the Manx language. TerriersFan (talk) 23:24, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Strong keep per dahliarose. Nominator: please withdraw your nom, as it was obviously an honest mistake. JERRY talk contribs 00:14, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. per above. —dima/talk/ 03:28, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep per WP:ILIKEIT if nothing else... c'mon, it's a Manx-language school! How cool is that. CRGreathouse (t | c) 03:28, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
  • ...that Bunscoill Gaelgagh is the only primary school that teaches only in the Manx language? by TerriersFan and Victuallers nom. Victuallers Nominated today ... please help! Article is now a "start" and linked in to the two existing articles it had on it in two other languages. Victuallers (talk) 16:25, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
    • Thanks Victuallers. This is an obvious nomination for a Did you Know and I look forward to seeing it on the front page. You and Terriers Fan have done a brilliant job. Can the nominator now withdraw the AfD? Dahliarose (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 23:40, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep Upon futher review, this looks like a good enough article. (And the Manx thing is pretty cool, too.) STORMTRACKER 94 00:08, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
