[edit] Robinson Rams (football)

Much to my chagrin, I know that school deletions almost never succeed, but do we really need a separate page dedicated to a high school's football team? Delete. (I also posted {{mergeto}} and {{mergefrom}} as an alternative, but I really think that it strains the credibility of Wikipedia to pay this much attention to a school team. --Nlu 03:26, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. Highly non-notable, though I won't oppose a merge. (Aside: I've always thought the burden of notability for school articles should be on the creator.) Deltabeignet 04:34, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
  • I think the burden on why something should be included always lies with the creator no matter what the subject of the article is. - Mgm|^(talk) 13:17, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, even though I graduated from there. To us graduates, that football team is most definitely notable; it's basically the pride and joy of the school. However, the football team is the pride and joy of hundreds and hundreds of high schools. This one, in the grand scheme of things, doesn't stand out. Mo0[talk] 09:27, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, not notable, and not a football team for that matter, you silly Americans. --Last Malthusian 11:36, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
• Merge' with Robinson Secondary School. Kappa 11:47, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
• Delete nn, agreeing with nom.
• Merge to the school. At least that way the school article is one of the few that gets expanded. - Mgm|^(talk) 13:17, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
• Merge to the school as per Kappa, obviously.--Nicodemus75 16:14, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
