[edit] Holy Cross Catholic Secondary School

Holy Cross Catholic Secondary School (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Stub on a school with no sources, no importance asserted, and nearly no information even in the infobox. >Radiant< 13:10, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep - significant high school with notable sporting achievements and other awards. The article needs to be expanded and improved not deleted. TerriersFan 16:03, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. This article has been vastly improved by TerriersFan since its nomination and now is well-sourced. The school is clearly notable. -- DS1953 talk 17:41, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete a well-sourced article chock-a-block with verifiability that makes no credible assertion of any notability whatsoever. Eusebeus 18:48, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment - notability comes through WP:N by way of multiple sources which this article obviously has. TerriersFan 22:54, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
  • No. Eusebeus 14:05, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Terriers, the sources verify that exactly zero really notable events or characteristics can be attributed to the school. All the sources provided fail WP:N as patently trivial. They are the very definition in fact: "pieces or bits of information of little important or value." VanTucky (talk) 15:34, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete sources verify that the school is not notable in any way. VanTucky (talk) 20:06, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, excellent job by User:TerriersFan in improving this article -- Samir 22:55, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per above.--JForget 00:47, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Trivial information/directory info/students winning awards etc do not grant notability to a school Corpx 01:58, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep ample reliable and verifiable sources satisfy the Wikipedia:Notability standard. Alansohn 06:14, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge Somewhere. As convincing as the fact that the school won the "Best School Float" award in 2006 at the Greater Kingston Santa Parade is, I remain unconvinced of its real notability. Someone appears to have dug deep and found some fluff pieces about the school, so I figure it should go somewhere. --ForbiddenWord 12:45, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Good start, and of course notable. Brandon97 14:17, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - The article is only a stub (and I have just tagged it so), but so are many articles. I thought it was agreed that Secondary Schools were generally notable per se, but primary schools needed to prove particular notability. Being a stub is not a reason for deletion. Peterkingiron 22:42, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep since there are ample non-trivial reliable sources to meet notability. Burntsauce 17:29, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Every school wins SOME kind of awards. Not notable to me. MarkinBoston 00:27, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
