Netivot Hatorah Day School
Non-notable day elementary school. Very few Google hits. Has little chance to ever be notable. Also per my reasoning at Schools. Delete. Gateman1997 01:54, 30 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Merge with Thornhill, Ontario. Short stub about a school of local notability only. Sjakkalle (Check!)  09:06, 30 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - I strongly disagree with the nominators general bias against elementary schools. Many are highly significant to a community, and are often a source of educational innovation.  A reader, wishing to learn about the education system in a place, will do much better to read a few good school articles, than read the inhrently  spotty and vague coverage of education done in typical town's article (if any coverage exists). However, I'm as opposed to mass stub creation, as I am to mass deletion.  Nothing in *this* article demonstrates current or future value.  --rob 09:13, 30 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment Rob, a reader wishing to learn about the education system in a place should use relevant sources. It is highly unlikely they would consult an encyclopedia. And that is what we're making here. --Lomedae 11:01, August 30, 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: The same arguement could be used to delete every article on every place.  In general, an encyclopedia is a starting point of research, not an ending point.  A traveler may read about a country they knew nothing about in an encyclopedia to get the basics, but they won't use it as an actual travel guide.  Same deal with schools.  They might research schools of a certain type in a certain region, but won't use an encyclopedia as a guide in their final school selection.  We're not travel guide, or a school guide; but we can still have places and schools.  You're comment about "relevant" sources could be used to delete literally every article in wikipedia because every one is *supposed* to be based on reliable verifiable external sources, which serious researches will look at directly.  --rob 14:24, 30 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Let us agree to disagree cheerfully :-) --Lomedae 15:14, August 30, 2005 (UTC)

 * keep please why should this be erased can someone explain thatYuckfoo 16:39, 30 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Because its a totally non-notable religious elementary day school stub that has no chance to even be notable no matter how long it exists as the school has no notable alumni, has had no notable events take place in it and has almost no Google hits.Gateman1997 16:46, 30 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. Sdedeo 19:46, 30 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, as per Kappa. Looks like we'll lose this one simply because it is religious and elementary. Eventually all schools will have a place . --Nicodemus75 22:51, 30 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Now why do you have to draw religion into it? That has nothing to do with this procedure. The fact that it's a non-notable elementary school and that whe're trying to build a encyclopedia here does. --Lomedae 21:51, August 31, 2005 (UTC)
