Yet another article on a unnotable primary school. Dunc|&#9786; 20:27, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * keep this too it is a fair stub Yuckfoo 20:32, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)


 * Comment: Yeah, Dunc. Until this gets solved in the Schools policy, it makes no sense to keep adding them on here. jglc | t | c 20:32, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, good stub. Don't see any reason not to hang on to this part of the sum of human knowledge. Kappa 20:48, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * So's my phonebook but that's going into Wikipedia, no is it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Calton (talk • contribs) 03:26, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Unverifiable. copvio Kappa 21:21, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Another article stating how average the a school is. --Carnildo 21:46, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Weak delete. Mild schoolcruft. Stub that gives minimal information. Hermione1980 22:13, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, schoolcruft. School vanity is an unnecessary part of the sum of human knowledge (not that trying to create such is a goal of Wikipedia, despite contentions to the contrary).  RickK 23:35, Jun 10, 2005 (UTC)
 * Are you saying that wikipedia is not trying to compile and distribute the sum of human knowledge? 01:17, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC) Kappa 01:17, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * If you really believed that it were, Kappa, you would never have voted delete on a single solitary article. RickK 04:37, Jun 11, 2005 (UTC)
 * Why would you ever say such a thing&mdash; are you conveniently dismissing votes on articles which are blatant nonsense or acts of vandalism? Your comment is unreasonable.  &mdash;RaD Man (talk) 22:21, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * If you were consistant, you would think that even nonsense and acts of vandalism are all parts of the sum of human knowledge. RickK 21:26, Jun 13, 2005 (UTC)
 * LOL, I wouldn't want it to be kept in the article space, possibly it could be transwikied to "wikivandilism" or somewhere. User:Iasson would be the expert. Kappa 21:48, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep We should have articles on all schools. CalJW 00:25, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete: Is there anything that sets this school apart from others, except its name? The authors don't tell us, if there is. Geogre 02:28, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. This school is simply average, and thus simply unencyclopedic. NatusRoma 03:21, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Yet another school. Merge into London Borough of Havering or Delete. --Calton | Talk 03:26, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge as above. Vegaswikian 06:41, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge with London Borough of Havering. If this school is notable it is only at a very local level. Sjakkalle (Check!)  09:28, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge with London Borough of Havering.  Good stub. I like to see attention paid to OFSTED reports. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 12:14, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep verifiable and NPOV schools. Double Blue  (Talk) 14:22, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Non-notability not established by nominator.  &mdash;RaD Man (talk) 17:29, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Christopher Parham (talk) 04:03, 2005 Jun 12 (UTC)
 * Keep Schools belong on Wikipedia. Stubs take time to grow.  -- Un focused 04:41, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. We know all the arguments now, and WP:SCH seems to have failed. --Carnildo 05:20, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment. The success of WP:SCH can be judged by the sheer number of merge or keep votes for school articles.  Overwhelming, I've never seen anything like this on VfD. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 02:01, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. -Da 'Sco Mon 08:55, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep SchmuckyTheCat 15:35, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Agree with what Unfocused said. -CunningLinguist 16:27, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep &mdash; RJH 16:22, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Also, I don't think WP:SCH can be judged as a success just because it managed to rally the pro-school hordes. It should have resolved the issue, not simply given carte blanche to any vanity page writer to put in an article consisting of "Non-Notable High is a highschool in Nebraska". As it is now, any school article, regardless of content or quality, will be vociferiously defended by inclusionists. --Scimitar 19:32, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment. VfD isn't a place for discussing article quality or for getting rid of poorly written articles. If an article is bad, work on improving it. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 20:14, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Another worse than useless page on another unremarkable educational institution.  It is a shame that there are a large number of users that appear to provide knee-jerk votes to keep all articles with the word school in them regardless of their encyclopedic value.
