[edit] Ferrell's Military Institute
Deltion nomination Non-notable school. No assertions of notability. Had a prod. That was removed without substantially addressing the problem. A speedy tag was then added by another editor. The speedy tag was contested by a hangon. As this has been contested twice, I thought it prudent to bring to AFD for furthr discussion. Jayron32|talk|contribs 04:00, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
Deletion Objection The article has been nominated twice for deletion, and a hang-on tag added and then deleted, all in the span of 17 minutes after in was originally listed. Doesn't that seem a bit hasty?? User talk:sf46 04:07, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
- Which is why it was brought here. Do you have any evidence that address the problems of the article, specifically a lack of notability in the form of multiple, extensive references in third-party sources? Such evidence would go a LONG way towards getting me to vote keep for this particular discussion.--Jayron32|talk|contribs 04:10, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
- Keep I agree with sf46's comment on the hastiness of this nomination. While it's true that this article has not yet established notability, it is not inconcievable that it would be able to do so; after all, several schools on the list of defunct United States military academies are notable enough to warrant their own articles. --jonny-mt(t)(c) 06:07, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
- Delete withut prejudice to re-creation if the creator can find some information about the place. But I'm doubtful of the notability: Google Books finds basic details in educational directories - FERRELL SCHOOL FOR BOYS, New Orleans; non-sect.; boarding; LC Ferrell, Prin.; 4920 St. Charles Ave - but that's about it.

- Speedy Delete as empty and lacking notability. Read the article, there is nothing there! Vegaswikian 21:35, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
- Delete, no assertion of notability. Doctorfluffy 05:41, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- Keep as all other secondary schools, though it needs some more information.DGG (talk) 00:07, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
- Delete no assertion of notability, no sources, just one circular reference (being on the wiki list). SkierRMH 00:52, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
- Delete, fails WP:N. Zero ghits ("-wikipedia"), indicating that this school has no significant coverage from any sort of reliable source. Doctorfluffy 08:08, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
