Proposed deletion of high schools
Hello, you have proposed deletion of various articles on high schools. Please consider the precedent at Notability (high schools) and related pages.  Blue Rasberry   (talk)   02:46, 23 November 2012 (UTC)

"Until sourced content is created, the school should be merged with a redirect to an article about the school district, town, or village of the school. An unsourced article on a school, or an article on a school without enough content for a rounded article, should not have its own page." --All high schools can be notable MisterCrazy8 (talk) 02:54, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Thing is, they do have sourced content. These are not new articles either, many have been around for more than a year. It would be one thing if someone had just spammed out some new articles in a short time, mass creations are much more likely to be left alone, undeveloped, otherwise not meet policy, but these are not that.

 * I would argue that the essay you've just linked to there is just that, an essay. And, for that matter, one that's fairly recent and based more or less on one person's opinion. There really is a pretty longstanding consensus (much more longstanding than August 2011 fwiw) that high school articles are notable as long as the school can be shown to exist - rather like the majority of settlement articles. I would suggest a focus on elementary or middle schools first. Blue Square Thing (talk) 15:54, 23 November 2012 (UTC)


 * We appreciate your enthusiasm MisterCrazy8, but with  only  around 50 edits to  mainspace, you  hardly  have anywhere near enough  experience yet  to  be nominating  articles for deletion or tagging  them for maintenance. Our policies are complex and schools enjoy  some rather important  exceptions. Non  notable Middle and primary  schools for example, are also  not  sent  to  AfD; they  are redirected. Please read WP:Deletion and WP:NPP before tagging any more pages. If you need any help understanding the way we work here, don't hesitate to ask me on my talk  page. Happy  editing!
