Madnahar Jr. High School

 * – ( View AfD View log )

I know we tend to give schools the benefit of the doubt, but this is pushing it. Three teachers, less than 70 students, no indication of notability outside its local area, nothing usable as a source on Google - fails WP:GNG and WP:SCH. Yunshui (talk) 14:08, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

 * CommentWP:SCH is a failed notability proposal, so it should not be cited as if it were actually a guideline. Edison (talk) 16:11, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
 * He's right, y'know - I thought it seemed to contravene other advice I'd seen on school articles. Striking from my nomination; thanks for calling me on it. Yunshui (talk) 20:48, 7 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Merge to Malda Sadar subdivision, since it has long been the common outcome of AFDs for articles about typical schools below the high school level to merge them to an article about the organization, municipality, or school district of which it is a part. There does not seem to be an article on a "school district" as in some countries. Does not appear to satisfy WP:ORG, the relevant notability guideline. Edison (talk) 16:14, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Reluctant Keep - Past precedent is that high schools are inherently notable. I've never seen a limitation to that based on size, but would change my position if I'm mistaken.  Trusilver  20:01, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Changed to Merge per above - per this comment by User:Edison on my talk page. I somehow managed to filter out the "Jr." notation on my readthrough of the RfA AND the article. Only high schools are afforded unconditional notability. Trusilver 00:40, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
