[edit] Charlotte Islamic School

Charlotte Islamic School (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Outside of the trivia of being the first Islamic school in Charlotte, N.C., this school is not notable. Ecoleetage (talk) 02:00, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

  • The news is about the opening of the school, which is a single-news event.Ecoleetage (talk) 02:37, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Actually only 3 out of those 33 hits are about the opening of the school. Phil Bridger (talk) 12:56, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

  • weak delete. An Islamic school in the US may well be highly unusual, but the sources are all local ones, writing about the school on its opening day, or are otherwise trivial mentions. There are none which truly assert the notability of the school. Ohconfucius (talk) 03:10, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep. I have expanded the article a bit with some refs. Over 90% of the Google News hits are not about the opening of the school, so this can't be dismissed as a single news event. Phil Bridger (talk) 12:56, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep - an Islamic church sharing premises with a Christian church in controversial circumstances. Backed up by multiple, independent sources that meet WP:N. TerriersFan (talk) 03:18, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
