[edit] Paradigm High School
A non-notable, small, private school that is written like an advertisement. It has no actual links and google has very little actually about it. Reywas92Talk 22:36, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
I will try to fix that.. Actually, I will. I do not want it deleted. Sir Intellegent 23:08, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
That good enough? Sir Intellegent 23:16, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
- Speedy Delete currently, there's no improvement to the article, no sign of notability, etc. To the individual who wants to keep this article, I strongly suggest writing it up in preview, and re-posting the page once you've got it far enough along, and citing reliable sources that tell us why this article is noteworthy.

- Delete Half this pathetic little article is taken up by the dress code. Notable only for its utter lack of notability. Dennitalk 23:44, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete and comment: Lack of assertion of notability. Also, if the statement "Currently, there is a contest being held at this school to see who can write the best article to put here" refers to this article, there may be a conflict of interest due to the demonstrated possibility of advertising overtones. +A.0u 00:27, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

I personally will go though all of the entries and eliminate any of the entries that violate wikipedia rules. I don't know who put the things other than the 1st paragraph in there, but it was not me. And to Denni, I wiped out a paragraph to remove the "advertising" theory. If I must, I will also wipe-out the other paragraph that is more than 2 sentences long to fix this problem. No unneutral articles from the students of this school will be winners of this said competition. Sir Intellegent 18:56, 11 March 2007 (UTC) Once again that wasn't me but, in my opinion, I think that might look good enough. It grew quite a bit... I will quickly patch that up, and let me know if that is good. Sir Intellegent 19:06, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
- Concern: I'm just curious about the existence of a competition - why a competition in the first place? My concern is that some people may not be entirely familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, so are you in a position where you can mediate what occurs between Paradigm High School and Wikipedia? +A.0u 21:42, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
What I was going to do was that the entries were to e-mail me, I would pick the top 5 that follow Wikipedia standards, send them to the admin of the school, get the cleared one, and post it creating any needed formatting and etc. But, what's on there right now looks good enough for now or indefinately.

- Delete Fails WP:N. Also, I wouldn't recommend attempting to have a WP article "cleared" by its subject, as that risks a serious WP:NPOV problem. Besides, there's no way to keep it in the form that was "cleared". —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Butseriouslyfolks (talk • contribs) 23:36, 12 March 2007 (UTC).
You have a point, so feel free to add the so called "neutrality" tag to it because I can't find it. I will also work on the citations asap. Sir Intellegent 13:33, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
