[edit] Mearns Castle High School

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

Non notable school , no particular significance or Notability. Said "new systems" to tackle latecoming are carried out by majority of schools. WP:N states in Note 5 that "..articles on schools may be merged into articles on the towns or regions where schools are located". I feel this is the case for this article.

• Delete No assertion of notability or what makes this high school any more notable than the average school. TJ Spyke 04:03, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
• Keep All high schools should have an article, and thousands of them do. Vast numbers of users think that high schools meet the notability requirements, as has been demonstrated in debate hundreds of times. Osomec 13:31, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

• Comment. Its fine that those hundreds of schools meet the notability requirements, but in case you haven't noticed, there is nothing notable on this articles page. --SteelersFan UK06 14:27, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
• Comment. "All high schools should have an article" is only your opinion and there is no such a guideline.--Svetovid 20:23, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

• Delete. This high school is not notable at the moment.--Svetovid 20:23, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
• Keep or Merge to the school district but not plain delete.--JForget 22:45, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
• Weak Keep details regarding awards received by the school have been added, with appropriate sources. Article will greatly benefit from additional expansion. Alansohn 03:19, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
• Keep since all high schools are notable, as I argue here. Noroton 03:49, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
• Keep since recent details have been added with reliable sources this shows notability. Yamaguchi先生 03:51, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Schools-related deletions. —Noroton 03:52, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
• Delete & Redirect to Newton Mearns. Nothing is asserted about this school that convincingly passes my views on school notability. Eusebeus 07:09, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
• Delete they didn't win awards, they were just finalist a few times. That doesnt mean much in the way of notability, and there is nothing else. DGG 09:24, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
• Keep All high schools are notable. Greg Grahame 12:43, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
• Keep — RJH (talk) 15:13, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
• Keep This high school is notable as indicated by its status as a semifinalist in a Scotland wide award program. The article provides reliable and independent secondary sources. High schools/secondary schools are notable, often more notable than some of the smaller communities that feed into them. -- DS1953 ^talk 21:27, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
• Keep Once again high schools and secondary schools are inherently notable. --Oakshade 14:57, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
• Keep the school has won a national award, and that is sufficient to bring it out of hte group for notability.--Kylohk 14:05, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
