East Islip Middle School

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

The school seems to fail WP:ORG. The first AfD last year was closed as "keep", but there is still no substantiated claim to notability. -- Sent here as part of the Notability wikiproject. --B. Wolterding 17:43, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete No assertion of encyclopedic notability whatsoever (A7) . No sources and insignificant media coverage. No yellow pages.--victor falk 01:42, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge with East Islip, New York. There should be at least some mention of the school. Auroranorth (sign) 02:07, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
 * delete and salt-this is why Wikipedia has detractors. Chris 03:07, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete and SALT Fails notability. Given the lack of an agreement at WP:SCH, it fails WP:N, WP:ORG, WP:CORP. It asserts no notability. It has no WP:RS that are WP:V. Thank you. Twenty Years 16:08, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - salting is not cool. If it fails notability for lack of sourcing or because it's just not a notable institution, the situation can always change with better sourcing or a change to the institution.  Salting is only when people repeatedly re-create articles and we have to avoid disruption.  It's not appropriate as merely a strong statement of disapproval.Wikidemo 22:18, 5 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete per Victor. Salting seems over the top -- I wouldn't recommend it, unless there are major problems I'm unaware of. CRGreathouse (t | c) 02:32, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge as per Auroranorth Noroton 00:16, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
