Proposed deletion of Mandeville Upper School Students


The article Mandeville Upper School Students has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * We don't need a seperate article to Mandeville Upper School just for an unreferenced list of student names

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing  will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

AfD Nomination: Mandeville Upper School Students
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but all Wikipedia articles must meet our criteria for inclusion (see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Since it does not seem that Mandeville Upper School Students meets these criteria, an editor has started a discussion about whether this article should be kept or deleted.

Your opinion on whether this article meets the inclusion criteria is welcome. Please contribute to the discussion by adding your comments at Articles for deletion/Mandeville Upper School Students. Don't forget to add four tildes ( ~ ) at the end of each of your comments to sign them.

Discussions such as these usually last seven days. In the meantime, you are free to edit the content of the article. Please do not remove the "articles for deletion" template (the box at the top). When the discussion has concluded, a neutral third party will consider all comments and decide whether or not to delete the article. JohnCD (talk) 17:57, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi. I'm sorry to nominate your article for deletion before you have finished it, but it would be a pity to let you put a lot of effort into it. Anybody can edit Wikipedia, but that does not mean that anything is acceptable as an article: Wikipedia only manages to maintain itself as a useful encyclopedia, rather than a sort of glorified Myspace, by having a clear idea of what sort of articles are acceptable. There is a longish list of things that Wikipedia is not, and one of them is Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, which means that although a list of pupils at a school may be true, it is not considered a useful encyclopedia article. The links from the Welcome paragraph at the top of this page will tell you more about contributing. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 18:04, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
