This unreferenced article looks like a kind of advertisement, and fails to mention why the school is remarkable enough for inclusion. It looks to be written by a student of the school. Night of the Big Wind talk  13:21, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep - experience shows that with sufficient time and research high schools meet WP:GNG. Indian schools traditionally have a poor Internet presence and to avoid systemic bias time should be given for local sources to be found. This is a significant school with a long history. When, as here, the subject is likely to be notable then progressive development is the best option not deletion. Meanwhile I will clean up the page. TerriersFan (talk) 01:21, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I think two parts of the problem here with Indian schools are, for one, the more florid style of writing, which to Western eyes looks like advertising, and for the other a seemingly great difficulty in understanding that 'no copyright text' really means no copyright text. That, at least, wasn't a problem here. Peridon (talk) 14:16, 21 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep - All High Schools are notable - Wikipedia policyJethwarp (talk) 06:54, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep "All High Schools are notable", but some get deleted as spam or attacks... This one seems to be getting a rewrite cutting out the rather florid language of the original version. Peridon (talk) 10:49, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Why are all high school considered notable? Night of the Big Wind  talk  10:58, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
 * For the same reason as we keep all numbered highways, named bridges, inhabited settlements, fauna and flora, super-regional malls and a number of other instances - some subjects are considered, by their nature, to be important enough for inclusion and experience shows that, with enough research, sources can be found. By adopting some pragmatic rules of thumb we can save scarce resources for dealing with the stuff that really harms the Project. TerriersFan (talk) 14:31, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Search me. Probably a decree by the Great God Con-Sen-Sus. I can't see why junior schools aren't in the same position, myself, but haven't got worked up enough about it to start a campaign. Peridon (talk) 11:25, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Junior schools do share the privilege of being exempt from A7. Peridon (talk) 11:26, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
