Christian Brothers Academy (Syracuse, New York)

 * — (View AfD)

Non-notable institution that a handful of notable people happened to attend. Apart from that, the article is just a bunch of unencyclopædic, spammy information. Hús ö  nd  21:22, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep and cleanup, the combination of the school's athletic achievements (of which I know there are more than are listed here) and notable alums seems to tip it into notability, but it is very poorly written and seems to have been partially copied out of a student handbook.-- Dmz5 *Edits**Talk* 00:43, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep Article makes explicit claims of notability, but would benefit from a thorough rewriting of almost the entire article. Alansohn 08:39, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

 * Why is Syracuse in the name? It's in DeWitt now. Pink moon 1287 (email&bull;talk&bull;user) 19:15, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep All schools ARE in fact inherently notable. This article seems pretty well-written, although Husond if you found this article unencyclopædic, why didn't you try to improve the article rather than proposing it for deletion? Wikipedia isn't paper, therefore all articles that are verifiable and notable should be kept. Zader ' n ' et  03:08, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Schools are in fact NOT inherently notable, there's no policy saying otherwise. The fact that an article is well written has nothing to do with notability. Why would I ever rewrite an article about something that I consider not worth inclusion? -- Hús  ö  nd  00:32, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * weak keep If the alumni arethe strong point they shuld be emphasized, not the fact that students have to pass in order to graduate, or the rather ordinary curriculum.DGG 02:20, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
