- According to Wikipedia:Deletion policy:
-
- At the end of five days, if a "rough consensus" has been reached (some would call this a 2/3 majority) to delete the page, the page will be removed. Otherwise the page remains.
- 11-7 is only 61%. -- Tim Starling 07:02, Apr 25, 2004 (UTC)
A "rough" consensus. I think there's room for interpretation there, particularly given that it's already been decided that schools are not Wikipedia material in and of themselves. The city I live in contains hundreds of elementary, junior high and high schools, the prefecture thousands (let alone the country). And that's just the official schools; then there are cram schools, training schools, minor colleges, hairdressing schools, dog grooming schools... Should I add them all too? And I ask this not to be sarcastic but because this is already what's beginning to happen (see VfD for the latest one). Exploding Boy
- It was deleted, and I requested it be undeleted on Wikipedia:Votes for undeletion. Angela undeleted it. See Wikipedia:Votes for undeletion/undeleted.
- It is completely untrue to say that "it's already been decided that schools are not Wikipedia material in and of themselves". There is no reason not to have articles on schools simply because they are schools. If you want to write articles about schools, yes, feel free to do so. I think there are more important things you could be spending your time on, but if that's what you want to do, that's fine. Make sure the info you include can be verified against a reliable source. --Camembert
