One sentence substub on non-notable high school. Delete. Neutrality^talk 05:07, May 17, 2005 (UTC)

• Delete unless wikipedia wants a short, pointless article for every run of the mill school on the planet. CDThieme 05:14, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and expand all secondary schools. This is getting ridiculous. --BaronLarf 05:34, 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 05:49, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

• Delete Instutional Vanity. Wikipedia isn't a triviabase Gmaxwell 06:27, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, until... um... yeah... I'm getting tired of thinking up new things for each one. Single sentence that can never be expanded without waffle and cruft... mmmm, waffle-cruft(TM)... Master Thief Garrett 07:39, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• Merge into Deerfield Beach, Florida and delete - Skysmith 09:32, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. Subject should be verifiable. - SimonP 13:22, May 17, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Mass listing perfectly good stubs while repeating the mantra "non-notable" is not an excuse for not having a reason for deletion that is actually derived from Wikipedia policy. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 13:40, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• added two lines keep Lotsofissues 13:41, 17 May 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 13:45, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. This school is ranked #381 on Newsweek's list of the Best High Schools in America. -- BD2412 ^thimkact 14:10, 2005 May 17 (UTC)
• Keep this fine little article Lupin 14:11, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep schools in wikipedia. --Howrealisreal 14:46, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, vanity. Radiant_* 15:02, May 17, 2005 (UTC)
• Merge into article on Broward School District, or else keep. — RJH 15:56, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

• Keep usual reasons R Calvete 19:51, 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.

• Keep the schoolcruft. Ketsuban has spoken. The debate is over. 21:20, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Bogus (non-policy) nomination - notability is still not a listed deletion criterion - David Gerard 23:17, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Non-notable. Quale 23:55, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• Merge into Broward School District per my school article policy. Kelly Martin 02:07, May 18, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, a top ranked school in the United States according to Newsweek. —RaD Man (talk) 08:07, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Agree with Radman1. And lots of articles start out as mere stubs. Visit Schoolwatch to vote on other schools up for vfd. --Zantastik 18:31, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Introduce a limit of 3 nominations per day. CalJW 18:45, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
