  • Delete although worth a mention in our article on Matraville, New South Wales. Capitalistroadster 02:12, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Hence Keep but merge into Matraville, New South Wales as if that grows it will be recreated anyway for comprehensiveness. cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 11:12, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Per Calisber. Also need some mention on the Hillsdale suburb page, where it can be argued the school is located. My first attempt at creating articles for wikipedia. Sad to see it go, but not really notable enough at present. Recurring dreams 21:43, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge, which generally translates as redirectGarrie 02:01, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge for the moment. GizzaDiscuss © 04:42, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge with Hillsdale, New South Wales until a more thorough assertion of notability can be made. Auroranorth (sign) 10:50, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Meets WP:ORG in that the school's "longevity" justifies it inclusion. Assize 03:42, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
    • According to the United Nations schools are not an organisation. That aside, keeping a school because its been around since 1903 is ludacris. If this were to be the reason to keep the article, then wikipedia would be flooded with non-notable primary schools that have existed for a while. I would like to point your attention to South Perth Primary School, it was speedy deleted (without AfD) for being NN, its existed since 1898, making it 5 years older than this one. I think this argument is ludacris. It fails to provide any serious reliable sources, which will back up any claim that the article makes. Twenty Years 16:13, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
