Talk:Lake Clifton Eastern High School

VfD listing
Lake Clifton Eastern High School was listed on VfD on 23 November. The result of the debate on 29 November was to keep the page.


 * Revision as of 20:46, 26 Nov 2003 (version at time of decision to keep)


 * Another bogus article about an unimportant school. If you'll read the article, you'll see that it even says in the article that the school will soon no longer even exist.  RickK 01:33, 23 Nov 2003 (UTC)
 * "Unimportant" is a very subjective critereon to be using (I doubt it being unimportant to the kids who go there). In any case, the article claims it was the largest high school in the US when it opened, which surely makes it notable on some level. The fact that it will eventually cease to exist in its current form isn't really relavent - people die and borders change, but we still have articles on people and countries. I think the article is fine to keep. --Camembert
 * Keep unless it is decided at Wikipedia talk:Deletion policy/schools to delete all schools. Angela 02:12, 23 Nov 2003 (UTC)
 * You've probably guessed already, but I think we should keep this. It's a real school. Anyone who wants to read about it in the Wikipedia should be allowed to; anyone who doesn't can always choose not to go to the page. -- Oliver P. 04:38, 23 Nov 2003 (UTC)
 * Keep, former largest school in US, now largest on east coast. Jamesday 04:57, 23 Nov 2003 (UTC)
 * How could it be the largest school on the east coast with only 2318 students, that's medium-sized at best. Maximus Rex 04:59, 23 Nov 2003 (UTC)
 * That page has "enrollment" = 2318: I think that means 2318 students enrolled this year, so for total size you need to multiply by number of year groups. Not sure, though. Martin 17:24, 23 Nov 2003 (UTC)
 * No it's actually the the number of students. Maximus Rex 17:37, 23 Nov 2003 (UTC)
 * Looks like it's physically largest, not largest in numbers, Martin 20:46, 26 Nov 2003 (UTC)
 * Keep, well written and confirmable. --mav 06:49, 24 Nov 2003 (UTC)
 * It is confirmable, I was the one who submitted that entry, go here to see the school listed on CNN. To see how large the school is, go here for an arial picture of the school, courtesy of MapQuest.com, the large complex in the middle of the photo is Lake Clifton. -- User:KSweeley 24 Nov 2003.
 * How does the physical size (that's the largest claim, not student number) compare to at 43 acres (and 5,023 students in 1998).? This was another 1998 claimant to most students, with 5,000. Jamesday 00:37, 25 Nov 2003 (UTC)
 * We should keep in all the schools that are put up individually at VfD. (and better yet, have them all recorded on a List of schools so we can keep track of them all if our final decision means we have to delete some). That way, if we make a final decision that schools should be kept when we're deliberating on an all-Wikipedia policy that determines which schools are legitimate for Wikipedia articles and which aren't, we won't have to start from scratch all over again on all those schools people worked so hard on in order to get our coverage of schools complete. Wiwaxia 02:47, 25 Nov 2003 (UTC)
 * Delete. We can't list every school.  If we don't delete, but later decide on more objective criteria to decide which high schools etc. should have articles, we should revisit this article.  Daniel Quinlan 17:40, Nov 26, 2003 (UTC)
 * Keep, I think - largest on East coast seems a good enough claim to fame. We have thousands of articles on towns with a smaller population than this school. Martin 20:46, 26 Nov 2003 (UTC)

How big in area is this school?
The local highschool in Plymouth-Canton MI is 305 acres of land. How about this one?

i work at their now why it is called heritage high and the school is a disgrace to have such beautiful history.
 * It is 441.11 acres of land, taken directly from the local real property database.KSweeley 07:45, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Former Student of Lake Clifton and statement deletion of the Layout Section
I've typed the layout section from personal experience from attending Lake Clifton in its last 4 years of existence. Many people have actually noted that the school layout is similar to a prison; example: a central core housing administrative offices and radiating from that central core is two smaller buildings which is then broken down to 4 units housing prision cells. I am wondering why my statement was removed. KSweeley 13:42, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
