[edit] St. John Bosco Interparish School

St. John Bosco Interparish School (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Article on non-notable school Arizona, has existed for almost a year without any significant information added. Has been proposed for speedy deletion twice as non-notable. Macboots 21:15, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete unless significantly expanded and sourced. If this is a primary or intermediate school, then some indication of notability is required as well.-gadfium 05:54, 30 September 2007 (UTC). Now neutral. The article has been expanded and sourced, but still doesn't adequately assert notability.-gadfium 04:12, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Question:Where might I find the policy for articles on primary or intermediate schools requiring notability, beyond their existence? If I don't see an answer here I'll hit up your talk page in a day or so. Gh5046 03:58, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
  • There have been numerous discussions on school notability, but I am not aware that any have reached consensus. You can find links to at least some of those discussions at WP:SCHOOL. I am using my own standards, not any policy, to guide my recommendations on whether schools should have articles.-gadfium 05:07, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
  • One possibility would be to merge it into the appropriate neighbourhood article. The article doesn't say which neighbourhood it is in though.-gadfium 08:14, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, since it's been updated. Delete if not expanded.If it doesn't have useful information there's no reason for its existence. Gh5046 06:22, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete No claim to notabilty whatsoever.--Victor falk 14:45, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete school with no claim of notabilty, no Reliable sources to boot. Jbeach56 21:24, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
    • While improved, still doesn't indicate notabilty, and the sources are very poor, either trivial mentions, local news, or very unreliable sources like great schools and flicker, still delete. Jbeach56 02:55, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, as it looks like sources exist. I'll do what I can with the article momentarily. Best, --Le Grand Roi des CitrouillesTally-ho! 00:49, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment: That's much better, I've added an infobox and changed my vote to keep. Gh5046 02:25, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per Jbeach56. Finding enough sources to justify notability for primary or intermediate schools is difficult, and I don't think the burden has been met yet. The references so far are quite minor. Schools do not acquire notability by having a recycling program. EdJohnston 14:08, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Doesn't seem very notable to me. It also lacks the most elementary information, e.g. what level school it is, and how many attend. Richard001 04:57, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep the updated version.  ALKIVAR™ ☢ 05:59, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
