Memorial Middle School for Girls

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

I can't prove it because there are only a handful - at most - of hits on google and this article is the first one to show up (and has more info than the school's website, btw) but everything in me tells me this is a copyright vio. So I am putting it up to everyone to see if they agree with me. Postcard Cathy 18:14, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Agree---this reads like a brochure that somebody copied onto wikipedia. If it's not a copy vio, it is clearly an advertBalloonman 18:29, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. As stated in text (which does appear to be a likely copyvio), the school will be opening in August. While it is possible for a yet-to-open school to demonstrate notability, all we have here is that it's a school. Once information exists down the road to establish notability, the article should be recreated as a standalone article. Alansohn 20:12, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete and redirect per Alansohn. This just about the worst case of attempting to use Wikipedia as an advert space for a patently non-notable subject as I've ever seen. Absolutely shameless. Not to mention the violation of WP:CRYSTAL. VanTucky  (talk) 23:20, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per lack of notability - Nothing on the article and nothing through google news.  Also dont think that middle schools are inherently notable Corpx 04:54, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete per above. There's simply nothing here. --ForbiddenWord 17:45, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep/Redirect to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania as per Alansohn but don't move any information. Noroton 21:55, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - this is important if you are a black, underpriveledged, poor, young inner-city female. Read the article as to why, it is an option that the local school district ( one of the worst in Pennsylvania ) are unable to offer. A similar school was opened in the same neighborhood in 2001 for boys, following the Nativity/Miguel, and some of the same people are now involved in this project. To those of you who are shooting this down - shame on you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.244.30.245 (talk • contribs)
