Contested PROD. This article is about a non notable school. Article does not assert the importance for the subject. Rjd0060 23:50, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Note: I wish there was an official way to retract my nomination. There have been a number of improvements to the article since I nominated it. Article seems to be in good shape to keep now. - Rjd0060 18:38, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

Comment: That doesn't make it notable. WP:OUTCOMES is an essay, not a policy or guideline. And, that essay doesn't rule anything as notable or not notable. It simply says that high schools seem to get kept. Doesn't mean they all do, nor does it mean they should. I am getting this from WP:OUTCOMES#Education. - Rjd0060 02:40, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
Neutral: There are tons of High School entries on wikipedia. Some actually pretty good. But I find them all to be non-notable, yet here they are. So... why pick on this one? --Blue Tie 02:46, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
Comment: This is one that I ran across somehow. WP:WAX - Rjd0060 14:17, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep this one because it's notable and referenced. The view that no high school is notable is a little mistaken--for high schools or anything else. Even some elementary schools can be notable if there are sufficient sources. I am not sure if all high schools are notable. I think that even with diligent work, it will only come to 80 or 90 %.-- but I suggest that we do simply keep them all rather than waste time arguing over the remaining 10 or 20%, especially if people are going to nominate reasonably sound articles like theseDGG (talk) 04:02, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep We seem to be operating without a specific guideline, just precedent. Not paper. Cheers, :) Dlohcierekim 04:20, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - There are five what I would call reliable sources, which suffices for WP:NOTE in my opinion. Aboutmovies 05:12, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - in my opinion this school and article meet the criteria for inclusion. -- DS1953 talk 06:12, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Don't open a bag of worms here. This is actually one of the better high school articles I've seen, which seem to fall victim to "study hall computer time" student vandalism problems frequently. This one has sources, it is concise and specific without POV problems. It is thin, but the high school has only existed for 6 years. It's relative youth does not mean it's NN.

  • Keep - Being a current resident of Bend, I can't help but defend this. There are many School articles, this being one of the better ones, so why choose this one to delete? You would also have to delete all school articles, like the article for my own school.
Anyways, the fact remains, it's a good article. It has relevant information, and good sources to back it up. Theres no reason to delete it. Dengarde ► Complaints 19:45, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep based on self-inflicted criteria. — RJH (talk) 19:46, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep it has the reliable sources to pass notability.--JForget 23:01, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep' - has refs, and would just need improvement, not deletion if it didn't. - Peregrine Fisher 00:35, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
