The result was Delete. No policy on Wikipedia establishing that all high schools are inherently notable. Without encyclopedic content, this article is a clear violation of the very 1st pillar of Wikipedia.--Húsönd 00:22, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Father Michael Goetz Secondary School

Father Michael Goetz Secondary School (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Non notable school. No famous alumni, nor anything else of special note. Unless we would like WP to turn into an indiscriminate collection of schools all over the world, it would seem this page does not add much to the encyclopedia xC | ☎ 04:34, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Weak Keep based on the premise that highschools are inherently notable. Corpx 04:55, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep Like Corpx, I'm of the opinion that all high schools should be included until such time as consensus for school notability rules is established. - Richfife 19:13, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Expel per nom. Fascinating picture of an empty hallway, just as notable as the rest of the article. Clarityfiend 20:23, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. OysterGuitarst 22:02, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete They can possibly most of them be found notable, if something notable can be found to say about them. This article doesnt have any real contentDGG 00:45, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Articles on high schools can be useful, even if many of them need work. -- DS1953 talk 03:43, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete - per nominator and User:Clarityfiend. Why are all high schools inherently notable? That seems counter-intuitive and should be cleared up.Kilburnian 16:45, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Notability asserted and article development progressing well. EagleFan 20:20, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep Most high schools have ample coverage from reliable and verifiable sources to establish notability. This school is no exception. While some material has been added, additional sources should be added to further cement the notability of this school. Alansohn 23:12, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
  • comment I don;t think we keep articles around because someone might someday find something to show them notable. There should be no prejudice against re-creation of the article when someone does do the work on it.DGG 00:53, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Nothing of note here and high schools in and of themselves in my view are not inherently notable. Eusebeus 07:22, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Schools-related deletions. — But|seriously|folks  04:16, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep; information about high schools is usually easily found in reliable sources. google news and gov.on.ca have enough results to justify at least a stub. I've have trimmed the article down a bit and removed the image that conveyed nothing to the reader. John Vandenberg 10:29, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Ontario-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 10:29, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep because all high schools are inherently notable, as I argue here. Noroton 23:34, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
