Greendale Middle School
Also, I have redirected the new article you created on Greendale Middle School to the high school article. Although we appreciate your contributions, middle schools are generally not considered notable enough to have separate articles. Sorry.--chaser (talk) 05:53, 15 November 2009 (UTC)


 * I have seen a number of Middle schools listed in wikipedia. Please look up "GreenVILLE middle school" for an example. That middle school is also in Wisconsin. GreenDALE middle school is notable in that it consistently ranks high in the top five percent academically for all middle schools. Please reconsider your decision to redirect this page to the Greendale High School. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Margielouwho (talk • contribs)


 * I believe you. We have a lot of middle school articles around that should probably be redirected to their school district's or high school's articles. I think Greenville Middle School should probably be redirected, too. Sorry.--chaser (talk) 06:17, 15 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Is there a Wikipedia policy that you can show me, that states middle schools aren't noteable? I've spent a lot of time putting the article up(about 4 hours), doing research for the facts, typing it, and posting it all for nothing.  Does Wikipedia say that all middle school articles should be taken down or is this just something you've suddenly decided to do?  I doubt there is a policy against middle schools because Greenville Middle School article is still up.  Why haven't you redirected that page if you think middle schools aren't noteable?  I will stop bothering you about this subject once I have seen this "policy" with my own eyes.--Margielouwho  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Margielouwho (talk • contribs) 22:19, 15 November 2009 (UTC)


 * There's no policy, no. The notability guideline does not directly address this topic, but in the many deletion discussions we have had on the issue, articles on middle schools have repeatedly been either deleted or merged into the article for their school districts. See Articles_for_deletion/Common_outcomes (again, not a policy). Anyway, you're right that I redirected the article you wrote and did not redirect a similar one, and for that I apologize. I saw in your contributions that it had only been a few minutes from posting the article in your userspace to moving it to its current location and wrongly assumed a few minutes was all the time it took. If you spent four hours researching this, then that assumption was badly wrong. I'm sorry for my wrong assumption and for redirecting instead of preserving your work.


 * As you may have noticed, someone made the wise suggestion to merge the Greendale Middle School into another article. So how about we create an article on Greendale School District and merge the articles on the middle and elementary school into that article? Would that be a fair solution? If we do that, I will also merge all the middle and elementary schools from Hortonville Area School District into their article. How's that sound? You can reply here, as I have your talk page on my watchlist.
