[edit] Hammond Middle School

Hammond Middle School (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Article is about a non-notable middle school without sources to justify its notability. Delete per WP:V and WP:N. --JForget 00:22, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete, I agree. Silver seren 01:27, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Every school is notable to its students. Before an article is deleted, every effort should be made to find reliable sources. Valerius 02:42, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Comment That argument is a bit iffy. My company is notable to those who shop there, but it's not notable! Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry 02:57, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Comment I was able to find the school website, but I still don't think that makes it notable. There was no news articles or anything I could find.Silver seren 03:10, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Comment Just because a school is notable to its own students, doesn't mean it deserves its own article. It could be mentioned hovever, in an article about the school board/ district that it is in. --Nenyedi TalkDeeds@ 11:59, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per lack of notability. Notability to its own students does not mean it is notable to wikipedia. Corpx 05:06, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as per nom and my comment above. The school has some notability, it is a school, but the information is better placed/ merged in an article about all of the school district's schools. --Nenyedi TalkDeeds@ 11:59, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. The article's make up is "1/3 vanity, 1/3 COI, and 1/3 "Hey guyz look wut i ded r skool iz on da internet funnyy rofl11" (spoke in slang for believability}. Why does every student have to try and experiment here. This kind of article is third on my piss off list next to vanity, and band promoting. James Luftan contribs 14:40, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect to Laurel, Maryland is the best possible outcome for this article. Burntsauce 18:07, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Generally, when a low-quality article about a school is written, it is best to delete it so that it won't show up in the edit history if someone later wants to write a good article. --Metropolitan90 07:05, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect to the nearest locality or school district article. The low-quality argument is one for improvement not deletion. Silensor 07:46, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete or Speedy Delete (A7) No assertion of notability whatsoever.--Húsönd 01:28, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
  • redirect to Howard County Public Schools, which itself could use some not-a-directory-crap cleanup. Chris 01:52, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Redirect to Howard County Public Schools. Moved to Hammond Middle School per WP:CAPS then deleted OR and redirected. Dhaluza 10:35, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Redirect to Howard County Public Schools as suggested above. Yamaguchi先生 01:50, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. GreenJoe 21:44, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
