Northglenn High School

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

non notable school. While high schools are generally notable, this article is entirely based on WP:PRIMARY sources or WP:OR and is written like a brochure about the school. Gaijin42 (talk) 16:36, 27 August 2014 (UTC) Gaijin42 (talk) 17:24, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep As notable as most high schools, and the article does include substantial information on alums, etc. I find the list of alums that returned to work somewhat quaint (much like the local newspapers that list who came home for Xmas and had lunch with Mary Jane), but other than that it seems to be a typical high school article.

 * I almost went G11 on it. its completely encyclopedic throughout.
 * "The school's diversity is a unique strength. Northglenn High School also takes great pride in the wealth of clubs, activities and athletics it offers students."
 * "Northglenn High School is full of clubs that are diverse and unique; each one defines itself and what they are about."
 * We are the only school in the district that offers Calculus 3 on our campus
 * If any new idea can be transformed into an entrepreneurial effort, we have business partners who can work with students to make their plans into reality

 * Keep I think that cleanup templates should have been added rather than nominate it for deletion. This is the first major contribution from this editor, so Please do not bite the newcomers is a very relevant policy...it has in bold in its lead "nothing scares potentially valuable contributors away faster than hostility" (eg.nominating a page for deletion 10 minutes after its added). As you noted, the topic is noteworthy enough. I removed the list of alums that returned to work there, because it wasn't listed in the source given & at any rate, isn't really noteworthy (also seems like original research). Besides that a couple sentences removed from the lead that read as promotional language and a cleanup of external links fixes the major issues here (also see the copyvio content was removed). Again, I believe in don't bite the newcomers, and left a message on their talk page and suggested to write new articles in the sandbox and submitting for review.

 * Keep as a high school. No reason to think that with local and hard copy searches sources cannot be found to meet WP:ORG. We keep high schools for very good reasons; not only do they influence the lives of thousands of people but they also play a significant part in their communities. Expansion not deletion is the way to go with such stubs. The Whispering Wind (talk) 18:25, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
