Denbigh Community Primary School

Primary schools are not generally notable under wp standards, and are subject to deletion/redirect; this appears to be one of the NN ones. Epeefleche (talk) 22:56, 24 December 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete Not notable school. Buggie111 (talk) 00:58, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Primary schools are not inherently notable (there are almost 17,000 in UK). This article fails to state why this school in particular is notable. As far as I can tell, "Good" is the second of four Ofsted inspection ratings. That would suggest that in the opinion of Ofsted, this school is nothing other than average.

 * Delete: Run of the mill primary school with no claim to fame. Google search turned up nothing establishing notability. Dominus Vobisdu (talk) 17:57, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Whether a school is average or famous is irrelevant because our notability guideline is not concerned with these things. All that matters are independent reliable sources and this topic has them, e.g. this detailed report of 14 pages. Warden (talk) 21:07, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. No significant coverage. Run-of-the-mill. A routine government report, as as that linked above, does not establish "significant coverage": It demonstrates only existence, not notability. Neutralitytalk 23:47, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete as it lacks the level of significant coverage I'd want to come close to meeting the GNG. A redirect in this case would be potentially very confusing for users looking for a school in Denbigh. Blue Square Thing (talk) 15:03, 27 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Howdon where the school  is mentioned, per standard procedure. Non  notable schools are generally  not  deleted; instead,  as demonstrated by 100s of AfD closures, they are redirected to  the article about  the school district (USA) or to  the article about  the locality (rest  of the world). --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 08:11, 30 December 2011 (UTC)


 * NOTE for closer: if this AfD is closed as 'redirect', please remember to include the  on  the redirect  page. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 08:11, 30 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete - Non-notable.Fails GNG. Redirect might be preferred if it was enshrined in a guideline or policy. But it's not unfortunately. It's just custom and practice that's grown up that is unsupported by anything official. Let's delete and move on. Might encourage acceptance of a decent notability guideline for schools.Fmph (talk) 10:20, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
