Bugincheon middle school

 * – ( View AfD View log )

unremarkable middle school. Attempts to redirect to the town's article per convention have been reverted several times by the article's creator. Taking to AFD rather than break the 3RR. RadioFan (talk) 03:13, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

 * Questions: Is Gyeyang-gu, Incheon verified to be the appropriate "town" article for the location of this school? When attempts were made to redirect this page there, was the school mentioned or described anywhere in the target article? --Orlady (talk) 19:20, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment the location has not been validated. The school was not mentioned in the target article but there wasn't much to merge there.  A subsection on education would be appropriate for the article and would make a good redirect target.--RadioFan (talk) 20:02, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks. This looks like a merge and redirect, but only after an appropriate destination has been identified. There's no indication of notability for this school, but the photo and any other valid content should be merged to some other article where this page can be redirected. --Orlady (talk) 20:54, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Gyeyang-gu, Incheon. I have created an article section in the locality article and added this content there (see Gyeyang-gu, Incheon, along with some additional information about the school that I found through a web search. It is not surprising that past efforts to redirect this resulted in a revert war -- it must be frustrating for inexperienced good-faith article creators when their content is deleted and the page is redirected to some other page that does not even mention "their" topic, particularly when the only communication they receive is a generic talk-page template. Inclusion of the middle-school content in the locality article ought to resolve matters. --Orlady (talk) 14:55, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Comment according to the article, the merge target should be Gyeyang-gu, Incheon.--RadioFan (talk) 22:28, 5 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete - Not notable. Doesn't meet criteria by a long shot. Shadowjams (talk) 11:31, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. Fails the GNG. Guoguo12  --Talk--  03:14, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Gyeyang-gu, Incheon per Orlady and RadioFan. The general precedent for non-notable middle schools is to merge/redirect them to their nearest locality. Cunard (talk) 08:12, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
