Doerre Intermediate School

Advertising for a school, even an intermediate one should not be spam like this. Jmlk 1  7  06:14, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak keep as a somewhat useful article, at least potentially if not currently. It might not have the name recognition of Chuck Norris, but if I were considering sending my kids there I'd appreciate an informative description of the place. Remember WP:SENSE and WP:IGNORE. --xDanielx Talk 07:41, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
 * "I'd appreciate an informative description of the place"... for which the school's own website should be appropriate. In its current form, which is a simple duplication of the information and weasel-words that should be available on the school's website, while showing no notability outside existing and no sources independant of the school itself (let alone at all) the article would best be redirected with possible weak minor merge to an article on the district the school is in, if identifiable. Not-a-keep not-a-vote. -- saberwyn 11:07, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - just about any academic organization that was a Wikipedia article has a website. "This information could exist somewhere apart from Wikipedia, therefore this information should not exist in Wikipedia" is a non sequitur. In any case, the website likely has a very small handful of administrators, while the article can be edited by several thousand knowledgeable editors, the latter collective having much more neutral intent. You won't find commentary on such things as overpopulation, drugs, violence, etc. on the school's website. --xDanielx Talk 20:49, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete. No claim of notability. --Fang Aili talk 17:24, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep There is no evidence that this is "advertising". Frankly the allegation is pretty ridiculous. LukeHoC 02:16, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - No notability established & intermediate schools are not inherenty notable Corpx 05:03, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge into Klein Independent School District per established precedent here. TerriersFan 00:06, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep-This is not "advertising", and I agree that the allegation is ridiculous. It seems like there is a purge of the schools from this district ongoing. Why don't we try to improve the article instead of just summarily deleting it?-MBK004 01:52, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak keep per xDanielx. Not advertising. Mathmo Talk 22:04, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
