[edit] Flanders Elementary School

Flanders Elementary School (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

expired prod, with a second, based on WP:N; it's been around awhile and this is the state that it's in. However, deletion of schools tends to be controversial, so afd not prod for this one. If schools are inherently notable, which I think the community rejected as a proposition, otherwise, there's nothing here, perhaps a redirect to its school district?

DeleteThe only link to it is the town it's in, and there will be hardly any controvery for only one sentence. There is apparently no district article to redirect. I believe it has been generally decided that high schools are generally notable, but elementary schools never are unless there is news surrounding it. You should have left the prod there and it would have been deleted sooner. Reywas92Talk 00:53, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
