Maryam Sidiqua High School

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

Incoherent article with no encyclopedic information. Zero google hits outside of Wikipedia. CSD rejected because "it's a school." THF (talk) 21:59, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Note, I didn't reject the speedy deletion because it's a school, but because it was put up for deletion because of lack of context. WP:A1 reads "No context. Very short articles lacking sufficient context to identify the subject of the article. Example: "He is a funny man with a red car. He makes people laugh." Context is different from content, treated in A3, below." The subject here is easily identified. It is a school. Therfor it fails A1. Still, based on the apparent lack of notability of this school, and because its content seems unverifiable I say delete. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 22:11, 20 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete. Nonverifiable, no references, apparently nothing on google. - 7-bubёn >t 22:29, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep All high schools are best considered notable. It's tiresome to have to go into the reason yet again, but it has almost always been the case when sufficiently investigated that sufficient material is found. Given the difficulty in sourcing for this area, it's all the more important to keep this to avoid cultural bias. the advantage of removing a few percent on non-notable schools is way overbalanced by the need to debate every individual case.

 * Comment If all one has to do to escape deletion is title an article "High School", how do you propose we avoid hoaxes? THF (talk) 04:41, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * sorry, I meant, kept when the basic facts are confirmed, from a suitable source, such as their website--which has not yet been done here. DGG (talk) 05:33, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment Why did you vote to keep the article then? Nick-D (talk) 07:20, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Agreed, Delete. If some notability is established in the future, the article can be recreated. Aurush kazeminitalk 05:21, 21 January 2009 (UTC)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aurush kazemini (talk • contribs)


 * Delete Like communities, which are held to be rather inherently notable, high schools aren't necessarily notable if they're nonexistent; I know Google isn't everything, but the fact that I got four sources (none of them referring to such a place as this) when searching for this name demonstrates that it's likely a hoax.

 * Delete Per nom. WP:V isn't met, and neither is WP:N/WP:ORG. The article can always be recreated if someone can find sources which establishes that the school actually exists and that it meets WP:ORG. Nick-D (talk) 07:20, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete unless some proof can be found that this actually exists. The lack of google hits is not a good sign, nor is the fact that the author's one edit is the creation of the article.  I can't figure out where in Pakistan this school is supposed to be.  Mandsford (talk) 14:01, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete nonverifiable. Laudak (talk) 00:52, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
