[edit] Jesuit High School, Portland

Nothing noteworthy about this particular school IMHO, the initial entry isn't even barely a stub. Lomedae 12:19, August 14, 2005 (UTC)

I'm glad to see the article has been edited. Still, for the life of me I can't see why people don't just create a Wiki-Schools project, instead of incorporating a directory of all schools great or small into the main Wikipedia. Most schools are only notable to their region and (former) students. I strongly disagree with the statement that "all established schools are noteworthy". Just my 2 cents. --Lomedae 14:30, August 14, 2005 (UTC)

  • You obviously have the right to your own opinion. Kappa's opinion is not official policy either. Delete as NN. Radiant_>|< 14:44, August 14, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, meets notability requirements. Christopher Parham (talk) 17:02, 2005 August 14 (UTC)
  • Keep - Schools are intrinsically noteworthy. --Celestianpower hab 17:24, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete Notability is not established. Denni☯
  • delete and concentrate on an article about Jesuit schools in general which might have the potential to be interesting and useful. --TimPope 19:59, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep all schools, especially high schools. Pburka 20:10, August 14, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep as always. — RJH 20:23, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
  • No vote. See Wikipedia:Schools for background on the "schools" debate. --Alan Au 22:15, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, Highschools are notable. However I would question all Middle Schools and lower that don't establish some level of notability beyond "existing". See User:Gateman1997/Schools_for_Deletion for my stance on schools.Gateman1997 22:35, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep What on earth is the point of chopping Wikipedia into little pieces? There should be one guide to everything, because then people don't have to know where to look. Rather than creating new offshoots, all the existing offshoots should be folded back into Wikipedia. 82.35.34.11 22:52, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Notable. — BRIAN0918 • 2005-08-15 02:58
  • Keep. --Tony SidawayTalk 04:34, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete - I would like to see an article on Jesuit High Schools. If I knew anything about them, I would start it. But I don't. Which is why I would like to see an article on them. We're going round in circles. Oh yeah, delete as individual schools are not encyclopaedic, WP:NOT a web directory. Proto t c 10:28, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Well established notability. No one's stopping anyone from starting a separate article on Jesuit schools in general, too. Lack of a more general article is not a good reason to delete the more specific case articles. Unfocused 21:10, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
  • keep this too please the article is informative and helps wikipedia towards being the sum of all human knowledge Yuckfoo 17:42, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
  • keep This is currently the most selective high school in Oregon and people apply to go there like a college. Needs to be expanded, not deleted. Guerberj 23:31, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, obviously. It clearly says in the title that it's a high school. —RaD Man (talk) 03:44, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
