Eagle Ridge Elementary School

Delete Completely non-notable elementary school. For an elementary school to warrant inclusion there needs to be something far more compelling that "it exists." Soltak | Talk 19:56, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * keep as potentially notable, as there is no current notability guideline regarding schools. Niffweed17, Destroyer of Chickens 22:11, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Does not satisfy WP:SCHOOLS3. Inkpaduta 22:27, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. In the absence of topic-specific guidelines, go with the standard ones. If someting is potentially notable but doesn't explain how it is notable now, it's not notable now. Remember that deleting now doesn't forbid future creation of an article that contains references to support notability, if and when it becomes notable. DMacks 22:47, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete; notability of school not established. Schools are not inherently notable (or "potentially notable", whatever that means), and of the dozens or even hundreds of articles on Wikipedia considered for deletion (AFD, speedy or otherwise) every day because they don't assert the notability of their subjects, I don't see why this one (or any other article about a questionably notable school) should be kept.

 * Delete There is no such thing as "potentially notable". Either it is, or it is not. Anything else is crystal balling.  This article makes no assertion of notability. Resolute 07:47, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per Resolute. GreenJoe 19:44, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. The article's been around since last June, and in all that time there's been no evidence of notability presented. Sorry, but there's been six months to make the case, and that's enough. Goodbye. WMMartin 21:40, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect this one to School District 43 Coquitlam since it is probable that someone will turn to Wikipedia for information about this. (jarbarf) 19:24, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
 * It's probable that someone will turn to Wikipedia for information about an unremarkable elementary school? Forgive me for disagreeing. Soltak | Talk 19:36, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
 * No need for forgiveness, you are allowed to disagree. It would be nice if Wikipedia published unique hit counts somewhere for this reason, although I'm sure it would just lead to some sort of abuse.  (jarbarf) 19:49, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
