[edit] Walton Elementary School
Delete Completely non-notable elementary school. For an elementary school to warrant inclusion there needs to be something far more compelling that "it exists." Soltak | Talk 20:00, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- keep as potentially notable, as there is no current notability guideline regarding schools. Niffweed17, Destroyer of Chickens 22:11, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete Does not satisfy WP:SCHOOLS3.Inkpaduta 22:29, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. In the absence of topic-specific guidelines, go with the standard ones. If someting is potentially notable but doesn't explain how it is notable now, it's not notable now. Remember that deleting now doesn't forbid future creation of an article that contains references to support notability, if and when it becomes notable. DMacks 22:48, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- Keep I disagree 100% with the nominator unless it's a hoax. Just H 22:49, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete; notability of school not established. Schools are not inherently notable (or "potentially notable", whatever that means), and of the dozens or even hundreds of articles on Wikipedia considered for deletion (AFD, speedy or otherwise) every day because they don't assert the notability of their subjects, I don't see why this one (or any other article about a questionably notable school) should be kept.

- Delete Schools are not inherently notable. Chairman S. Talk Contribs 00:25, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete Schools are not inherently notable. Wikipedia is not a directory. No assertion of notability. Resolute 07:52, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per Resolute. GreenJoe 19:45, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. The article has been around since June of last year, and in all that time there has been no evidence of notability presented. And references/sources are inadequate too. WMMartin 21:42, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
- Redirect to School District 43 Coquitlam per WP:LOCAL and proposed school guidelines as a likely search topic. Yamaguchi先生 08:05, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
- Redirect to School District 43 Coquitlam. I believe some useful information is included in this article as well as the other articles which might not warrant all of their own individual articles, but perhaps some inclusion within a local article such as within the School District article which could encompass all of these small articles which appear to have little information available. We should not necessarily be deleting every single article just based on this. Attempts should be made to save some useful information and genuine work. If it is evident that more sources can be found to create a well established article, I would consider holding onto this or other articles and work on developing them.
