L A Matheson Secondary School

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Here is a school, perhaps one of thousands, in Canada. Not notable, page looks like it was written by a committee of kids and teachers. SolidPlaid 08:11, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete If this had been a company or product, we'd have called a CSD as blatant advertising. User: (talk • contribs • count) 14:22, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep after this impressive piece of improvement. User: (talk • contribs • count) 08:06, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep Nice re-write and wikification, DS1953. Saturn 5 21:17, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
 * In the absence of third-party sources, delete. Jakew 16:07, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - some third party sources have been added, as well as additional factual material. -- DS1953 talk 17:02, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - nicely cleaned up by DS1953 and now clearly notable as shown by the sources readily available on a Google seach. TerriersFan 17:14, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Fails WP:N and WP:SCHOOL. Bravedog 17:14, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - The article is much better now, and reads more like an encyclopedic entry which establishes some notability. I do not condone deleting pages to teach new or established users a lesson either. Camaron1 | Chris 19:28, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep I am not really satisfied with the sourcing so far, but there will probably be enough evidence for notability for this--and for all other established high schools. I therefore think we should change the practice, and start considering all high schools to be notable, and spend our time writing and improving articles. Consensus can change, and i think it has.

 * Keep I agree with every single thing DGG just wrote. Noroton 20:40, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment: Wow! Anybody who hasn't thanked DS1953 yet should get a load of this dif! Great, great job! Noroton 20:44, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep after the recent changes or Merge to its school district in case of different scenario.--JForget 01:05, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
