The result was delete. There's a clear consensus that this doesn't belong here as a stand-alone article. If anyone (Carrite?) wants to use the material in writing an article about the school, I'll userfy the article; just ask on my talk page. Deor (talk) 18:17, 19 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Commerce, Georgia. The notion that we ought to have an article about a small town high school football team when we have no article about the high school itself strikes me as . . . bizarre. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  07:02, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:GNG, WP:ORG and by analogy WP:NHSPHSATH. Cbl62 (talk) 16:27, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Reformat to Comerce High School (Commerce, Georgia). School outcomes say we keep all articles on high schools, so we need an article on this high school, so we just have to make this the football sub-section.John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:38, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete we typically do not keep articles on high school football teams, and I see no reason to make an exception here. Try another wiki?--Paul McDonald (talk) 15:07, 11 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - If this wasn't utterly unsourced, one might make a sound argument for merger. Carrite (talk) 15:09, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment - Actually, it occurs to me that a simple name change to Commerce High School would make this keepable on that ground. I see JPL is on that already above. Carrite (talk) 15:10, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep and change name to Commerce High School, with the above content a subsection. Carrite (talk) 15:12, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Note to closing administrator - If this is a Keep + Rename result, ping me after the close and I will start a basic article on the school. Carrite (talk) 15:16, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete and Redirect instead as there still would not be enough for its intended en actually convincing article; while there could an article for the high school since these are notable, this is the best path for now since none of the current contents are independently convincing.

 * Comment I think that it is a good idea to have an article about the school, and if someone wants to write it, I approve. If someone wants to completely transform this article so that it is about the school, and move it, I will not object. But because this article is unsourced, I have a slight preference for deletion of this article and creation of a new one. I see nothing here worth saving.

 * I see the point, but unsourced does not necessarily mean that the information is wrong and unsourceable. Southern High Schools are harder to source out than from other regions of the country due to bad replication of back files of newspapers, etc. via newspapers.com and so on, but there is no reason to think this school would be an insurmountable task. Carrite (talk) 02:00, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
 * It's not a bio of a living person and if the article were re-tooled to be about the high school (and include the football team), I have no objection. I can assume good faith that the high school exists, online sources can be found, and give time for the article to develop.--Paul McDonald (talk) 18:23, 18 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete - yes an article should be created on the school. This article has no bearing on that process. The majority of the article in question here is content that even if it could be properly sourced would be unencyclopedic either due to being out of guidelines or per WP:WEIGHT.John from Idegon (talk) 17:03, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
