Another school article
My daughter is a Montessori teacher in Toledo, Ohio. Due to the help and guidance you provided above, I have started to create an article for her school @ User:Buster7/Sandbox- Westside Montessori, Toledo. I have emailed some administrators of the school for history, info, etc. I mention this in the hopes that you can look over my shoulder every now and then and keep me headed in the right direction. No rush...it's most likely a long-range project. Thanks. ```Buster Seven   Talk  18:31, 7 November 2013 (UTC)
 * The nice thing about high schools is they are more or less automatically notable. Unfortunately, schools below high school level are not.


 * All you must do is prove they exist, and the school's website is enough for that.
 * Public schools are generally listed in the GNIS. There is a trick to citing the GNIS, so be sure to read the FAQ's on their website.  That will provide you with coordinate info and further proof of existence.  The government is notoriously sucky at providing accurate info for geolocation (I don't know how the hell they keep the planes from running into each other), so
 * always double check them with Acme mapper. You can also enter a street address into acme and get geocordinates.  Acme is much easier to use for getting coordinates than Google maps. ✅
 * I don't need to tell you that info gleened from an email is WP:OR, but for the history section it is not a big deal unless the copy makes some claim of accomplishment or fame.
 * Demographic and other statistical info needs to be cited to something WP:RS.
 * I urge you to go visit the school project at WP:WPSCHOOLS and to read the school article guidelines at WP:SCH/AG. *The whole school infobox is at Template:infobox school. It is huge, but of course it only shows the fields you fill out.  It contains fields that only apply to foreign schools, colleges and other  crap you don't need.

 * I am afraid I wasn't clear above. Schools under high school level in the US do not get articles unless they have independent notability.  They must meet WP:ORG, which few (including this one I am afraid) do.  I wouldn't move this to mainspace.  It will just get deleted. John from Idegon (talk) 23:42, 7 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Well....that's disappointing. At least I learned some new stuff. Thanks for the help. ```Buster Seven   Talk  15:06, 8 November 2013 (UTC)
 * There are thousands of other school articles that need to be created. As a matter of fact, there is a request for one in my last talk archive. Feel free to give it a try if you like. — Preceding unsigned comment added by John from Idegon (talk • contribs) 15:38, 8 November 2013‎
