[edit] The Vanguard

This article is about BBN, a private high school in Cambridge, MA, and its MONTHLY newspaper; this cannot possibly be worthy of an article. After all, it is a high school paper that is published eight times per year. The seems much more like student vanity than actual information for the public good.

• This afd nomination was orphaned. Listing now. —Crypticbot (operator) 16:19, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
• Merge with Buckingham Browne & Nichols, the school the paper is published from. It'd make a nice peer to the "athletics" section in that article ×Meegs 16:50, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect per nom. FCYTravis 21:58, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect as per the recommendations above. Whether or not vanity motivated the post is immaterial. The information here, while we may consider it inconsequential, is verifiable (I just visited the BB&N website), and may be of use to someone. Although the topic may not warrant an entire article, I do feel it, as most things, have a right to belong somewhere within the Wiki universe. Earthliberator 07:39, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

The Vanguard has been an institution since 1974 and the recipient of numerous honors from the Columbia Scholastic Association. Certainly this page is not of mass appeal, but that is the case for most encyclopedia entries. This page is very useful for a segment of users to get background on an honored and historic newspaper.
