Henry James Cambie Secondary School

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

WP:GNG. I couldn't find very many sources for this secondary school. I made a talk section with a few notable sources about this school here, but it isn't much. Sink Cat (talk) 03:29, 17 October 2023 (UTC) *Keep. Searching newspapers.com for "Richmond High" in Canada from 1925-1930 has turned up a plethora of sources. I'm adding some of them to the article, then if I have time will search from 1931 through the 1950s for more. Jacona (talk) Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Sink Cat, While this is not an independent source, it serves as a really nice starting point. The school was known as "Richmond High" from 1928-1952. Accessing newspapers.com via the wikipedia library, it appears that there are a good many sources under both the original name and the current name there appear to be a good many sources. — Jacona (talk) 15:55, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Striking the above for now. I just discovered Richmond Secondary School already exists and covers this school. Will come back to this later. Jacona (talk) 16:26, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment:, this catchment map shows that Cambie and Richmond are 2 different schools. But there seems to be a bit of a muddle that originated in 1952, when Richmond Junior-Senior High School was relocated, and Cambrie Junior Secondary School remained in the building that formerly housed Richmond??
 * According to this primary source, Cambie was known as Richmond High from 1928 to 1952. From 1953 to 1995 it was Cambie Junior Secondary School, and "H. J. Cambie Secondary School" opened in its new and present location in 1995. It will be interesting to see how contemporary news sources explain the 1952 shuffle of school names and places... — Grand&#39;mere Eugene (talk) 18:37, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
 * One more primary source about Richmond Secondary School. — Grand&#39;mere Eugene (talk) 18:44, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Grand'mere Eugene, Thanks. I'm going to do some other stuff. I may or may not get back here. — Jacona (talk) 23:33, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Keep. 's work so far, as well as articles Sink Cat and I have listed on the Talk:Henry James Cambie Secondary School page, convince me that enough independent, secondary, reliable sources exist to demonstrate notability of this subject. The history that includes Richmond Secondary School makes it a little challenging to sort out the claim that each school now makes as "the City of Richmond's first high school", but clearly both existing schools are notable. — Grand&#39;mere Eugene (talk) 17:20, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep, reinstating my redacted !vote above per earlier reasoning and — Grand&#39;mere Eugene's assistance. There are plenty of sources in the article, and they provide significant coverage to meet WP:GNG. Even more are available. Care must be taken to determine when "Richmond" refers to the Cambie tree and when it refers to the Richmond Secondary School tree, but there are definitely more than enough sources to meet WP:NSCHOOL via gng.
