 * Keep. Although the article should be heavily cut down; I'd say it's just about as notable as any high school. Jobjörn (talk) 09:28, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
 * It looks like crap at the moment, itneeds a complete rewrite, but that's no reason to delete. It could be a good article sometime.--Jaeger123 (talk) 14:50, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep & cleanup It is a notable school specializing in foreign languages. However, the article needs to be cleaned up. --Appletrees (talk) 16:00, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
 * The nominator's name is very disturbing me because it is a slur! I suspect what intention he has. ("nom" simply refers to "chad" BUT the user name means something inappropriate in Korean. Korean calls himself as such the name?). I should report his violation on Wiki naming policy. I feel like I know this seemingly new Korean editor due to his great interest in DAB articles and Korean educational institutions.--Appletrees (talk) 16:54, 12 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Weak keep as the subject is probably notable, but the article at present has some pretty severe COI and OR issues. I would suggest reverting, but earlier revisions of the article don't appear to be much (if at all) better. Perhaps stub it and start over with information that can actually be verified?

 * I'd be okay with PC78's solution. But it just would be a plain stub, as nearly no information can be verified... --USERNAME REDACTED 17:28, 12 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep Of course, Keep. It's a well-known school. The article needs a lot of work, but the subject itself clearly deserves an article. Also, I share Appletree's suspicion of the nomination given the nature of the nominator's name, which is about as harsh and vulgar a swear-word as there is in the Korean language.

 * Keep & cleanup*I think it should be kept but cleaned up. WHile it is considered a prestigious high school and now has a good reputation, keeping it in this condition is not a good idea. It lacks key information. It should be revised so that it should accurately reflect the school's reputation, backed by some FACTS. Idoversuperego (talk) 09:53, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
