Ion Creangă Gymnasium Satu Mare

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

There is absolutely no indication that this school is any way notable, and there are plenty of indications that it is not: it is one of the schools offering education to people between the ages of 11 and 14 8 and 14, so it's not even a high school, and it is located in a rather large but provincial city in Romania (when there is a huge probability that most or all such schools in Romania, the capital included, are not worth separate articles). With or without agreement about WP:SCHOOL, there are no independent sources in any way attesting this school's notability, and we probably have an article only because the creator is a fan of Satu Mare - which may be laudable, but in this case fails WP:NOT. (And btw, since it includes a primary education section, as per the text in its current form, the title is an obvious misnomer: it's not a gymnasium, it is simply a school.)

 * Merge/redirect to Satu Mare per precedent. Cunard (talk) 00:30, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge/redirect to Satu Mare per precedent on the basis that it only educates to age 14 and, as such, is not a high school. TerriersFan (talk) 04:00, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment I then propose doing the same for Grigore Moisil Gymnasium Satu Mare and Lucian Blaga Gymnasium Satu Mare (both of which, btw, are not gymnasiums). And incidentally, one would have to wonder why the Satu Mare article mentions them at all - ca you imagine doing something similar in, say, the article on London? Yet more liberties taken with WP:NOT. Dahn (talk) 09:33, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge/redirect per above. Regarding the comment about London - we do something very similar, it's just the main article is so big we have separate articles that list scholastic institutions. See for example List of schools in the London Borough of Greenwich. Thryduulf (talk) 10:03, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
