[edit] Fairmeadow School

Tiny, non-notable elementary school of 379 students. Delete. Neutrality^talk

• Keep. Bogus (non-policy) mass nomination, clogging the VFD system - notability is still not a listed deletion criterion - David Gerard 23:21, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Non-notable. Quale 00:13, 18 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep as with others. Christopher Parham 00:30, 2005 May 18 (UTC)
• Keep. One has to exercise some act of the imagination to describe a school with 379 students as "tiny". Tiny as a school out in the Hebrides with three students? My primary school had 500 students in the middle of the Baby Boom, the first class once had a roll of 62 students, and this was reckoned to be absolutely huge. This is a good stub. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 00:48, 18 May 2005 (UTC)
• Merge into Palo Alto Unified School District per my school article policy. Kelly Martin 02:39, May 18, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep for the hearing center. Gazpacho 04:24, 18 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, good stub, verifiable, nontrivial, topic is notable enough for an unlimited encyclopedia. Kappa 07:22, 18 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, WP:VAIN. Radiant_* 08:54, May 18, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, Lupin 13:55, 18 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Verifiable and NPOV. Schools are an excellent entry point for new Wikipedians. --Unfocused 14:30, 18 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep I created this page after looking at the Palo Alto page and seeing a link but no page for this school. This was my elementary school and I feel the page can provide information for others. It was one of my first pages and as previously mentioned this is a great example of an entry point for myself. I am doing my best to continue to add information and others have already started to help. I would appreciate it if this article was not deleted so I can continue to expand it and work my way through the wiki process. A look should be taken at the three other elementary schools in Palo Alto with pages. Two are also up for deletion and have similiar disscussions taking place. They serve as good examples of ways to improve this article as well which I will try to add. ( Addison School, Duveneck School, Walter Hays School ) Dapoloplayer 07:09, May 19, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Non-notability not established by the nominator. —RaD Man (talk) 07:57, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete vanity, not notable. Grue 16:35, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Introduce a limit of 3 nominations per day. CalJW 18:55, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete not notable, pointless. CDThieme 01:26, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete = not notable. NoAccount 03:00, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
• Note: This is NoAccount's 4th day of having an account.
• Keep. (1)We don't even have a policy about schools yet, (2)schools are important and should be included, (3)this massive deletion campaign is terrible. Introduce a limit of 3 vfd nominations per day. Project Schoolwatch. --Zantastik 22:24, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
