[edit] Centennial High School

Non-notable high school substub, and most likely one of five dozen schools with the same name. Neutralitytalk 04:45, May 17, 2005 (UTC)

  • Keep. Looks emphatically stubbish to me. Uniquely identifies the school. We can move it when necessary. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 04:56, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete unless wikipedia wants a short, pointless article for every run of the mill school on the planet. CDThieme 05:22, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, uninformative. Gazpacho 05:25, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep and expand to make it informative, long and with a point. Although having 23 (wait... now 24) other schools all submitted to VfD on the same day makes this a bit harder on editors and, I would imagine, on the moderators of this page. --BaronLarf 05:27, May 17, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep schools. Verifiable and NPOV. First, preserve knowledge, then expand knowledge. Thanks to Neutrality, I've had no time for adding content today. --Unfocused 05:33, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

  • Keep. Subject should be verifiable. - SimonP 13:24, May 17, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Encyclopedic, verifiable and NPOV. Meets all agreed-upon Wikipedia standards. Like some others, I will be copy-pasting this to all the high school votes since Neutrality seems to have mass-suggested articles for VfD simply because of a POV judgment of their subject--Cynical 13:41, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep schools in wikipedia. --Howrealisreal 14:54, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, vanity. Radiant_* 15:03, May 17, 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge/Consolidate into an article on the local school administrative district. — RJH 15:40, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep -- Longhair | Talk 17:01, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep schools. Inherently notable (expect to be seeing this posted quite a few times). R Calvete 19:35, 2005 May 17 (UTC)
  • Delete. Useless collection of generic facts about an insignificant school. This is not an encyclopedia article. Individual schools are not inherently encyclopedic and there is nothing to distinguish insignificant schools like this one from thousands of nearly identical schools around the world. Gamaliel 20:19, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep the schoolcruft. Ketsuban has spoken. The debate is over. 21:04, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Notability is still not a listed deletion criterion - David Gerard 23:15, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Non-notable. Quale 23:45, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep as with others. Christopher Parham 00:52, 2005 May 18 (UTC)
  • Keep disambiguation page. Kelly Martin 01:54, May 18, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep as a disambig page. Maybe a little cleanup to reduce the size of each entry and research other schools with the same name. Vegaswikian 06:02, 18 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge all information from sub-pages into this, and delete individual school articles. Jayjg (talk) 22:03, 18 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Lots of articles start out as mere stubs. And stop the huge vfd purges while we don't have a policy for schools! Visit Schoolwatch to vote on other schools up for vfd. --Zantastik 18:22, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
  • KeepThese tactics are outragous. There should be a daily nomination limit. CalJW 18:39, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep until Wikipedia runs out of space. -- BD2412 talk 02:34, 2005 May 20 (UTC)
