Speedy deletion nomination of The Field School (Chicago)


A tag has been placed on The Field School (Chicago), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic.

This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.

Why "The Field School (Chicago)" has been speedily deleted under the WP:G11 deletion reason
Hi ChippyH, and thank you for your interest in the Wikipedia project. Elementary schools very rarely pass the general test for inclusion as Wikipedia articles. (Please see Notability for broader information about "notability".) If kept, it will be because they are long-established schools of historical significance. I note that, according to its website, The Field School is a recently established elementary school. Following WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES, elementary school articles are most often "redirected" to the school's location or the local school board. In this particular case, unfortunately it would appear you have resisted following advice on your "talk page", and continued to add content that could be reasonably described as advertising to the now deleted article. Please let me know if you have any questions about this, or if I can assist you in any way about editing Wikipedia. Pete AU aka --Shirt58 (talk) 11:35, 21 April 2018 (UTC)

HI, Shirt58 The Field School is notable since it has been frequently on the news as showed by the resources. It is playing a racially and economically significant role in the community that went beyond a primary school.

Sorry I could not attend to the comment in time, however, I did not make any further edits.

I would love help in recreating this page if you would read through the contents of those articles and consider the significance of the Field School to its community.

Other elementary schools have wikipedia pages such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veritas_School_(Newberg,_Oregon)
