March Academy

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

No indication of notability. Most sources are from the school's website. One source — the PDF — is long gone with no working archives on the Wayback Machine, one (Manta) is some sort of business listing (only mentioning it in passing), and another (OCT) seems to be a directory of certified teachers, meaning that it only mentions this place in passing at most. The only reference which could be usable is the one from "Our Kids." Trying to find additional sources on Google Search + News, I just found a bunch of sites that regurgitated information you could find on the school's website, more pages from Our Kids that contain the same information as the Our Kids reference on this page, and a page from a parenting magazine with dubious reliability based off of something their principal said. This page can't be redirected to a district page either, as it's a private school.

 * Redirect - to List of schools in Ottawa per WP:ATD and WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. Article fails GNG like most lower schools. 69.92.163.38 (talk) 15:35, 16 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment: WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES is not a notability guideline. It's merely a list of the typical outcomes of school-related AFDs. WP:ATDR is a good reason to redirect though. Capsulecap (talk • contribs) 18:55, 16 June 2023 (UTC)
 * And SCHOOLOUTCOMES tells you where they are usually redirected. Nobody but you said it was a notability guideline. You may not know that since Wikipedia policies and guidelines are supposed to be descriptive rsther than proscriptive, how previous AtD's came out is a pretty useful thing to know. Our rules aren't there to tell us what we cannot do; instead they should describe what we do do. 69.92.163.38 (talk) 06:53, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Redirect - to List of schools in Ottawa. I'm not sure why that is debatable. Nfitz (talk) 21:49, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
