[edit] Hibiya High School

Hibiya High School (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

It's just some random public school in Tokyo, pretty sure it's not notable. --awh (Talk) 04:03, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

  • 125+ years old and 6 alumni with articles... seems likely to be notable. Even an english-language search returns some useful looking news results [1], seems to have been covered by the Western press as an example of a great Japanese school during the boom years, in 2005 it was called "The best public High School in Japan" [2]. So uh, Keep. --W.marsh 04:15, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. It's at least 7 alumni with articles. I just added Susumu Tonegawa, who mentions it in his Nobel bio ([3]). Stammer 10:00, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
