Notability issues
This article have no notability. I think fails WP:GNG. At present I add notability tag. No significant coverage found. - Jayanta Nath (Talk|Contrb) 18:51, 11 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Why do you think the article has no notability? This,, and this are all independent reliable sources which passes GNG plus notable per WP:NHS.--Buzzzman (talk) 21:11, 11 September 2013 (UTC)
 * @Buzzzman, first the number of reliable sources are not prove its notability, its need with significant coverage.

Your links...

Above all three linked text above ( last fourth link is not about this article) news not about the school, about investment and talk, move etc. Please read carefully again WP:SIGCOV. I think this not a significant coverage.WP:NHS till is not a policy, it is essays. Please read what is essay and what is policies.- Jayanta Nath (Talk|Contrb) 06:07, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
 * I'd like to request you to read WP:NNC. Maybe significant overages not added from secondary sources but how do you justify the claim This article have no notability and i mentioned WP:NHS (which is well discussed in the community) to reach a consensus for notability for high schools. If you have issue with WP:NHS then i'd advise you to raise your concerns in the talk page.--Buzzzman (talk) 06:54, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
 * As I stated on his talk page, WP:GNG dictates that this is notable. WhisperToMe (talk) 05:00, 12 September 2013 (UTC)


 * I have not applied AFD due to frequently they will be kept by WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES.- Jayanta Nath (Talk|Contrb) 06:27, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Thank you WhisperToMe (talk) 06:42, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

Note that "Hamtramck Public Schools" is the government agency that controls all of the public schools in Hamtramck. It is not an individual school. WhisperToMe (talk) 06:42, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh! government agency really?? Then it should kept here. Thank you for clarifying. But please improve the reference. I am adding Refimprove tag.- Jayanta Nath (Talk|Contrb) 07:45, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
 * If your concern is the use of too many primary sources (sources from the school district itself instead of from a secondary source) there is a specific primary sources tag that can be used. Anyway, school districts in the United States are local government agencies that control public schools in a particular area. Often they are independent of municipal and county control, and they only answer to the education department of the U.S. state it is located in. WhisperToMe (talk) 17:39, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
 * I still don't understand how Refimprove is applicable while Primary is there?--Buzzzman (talk) 06:54, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
