Psg public schools

Non-notable primary school. The article is also unsourced. A redirect to Peelamedu or Coimbatore would be implausible. Ryan Vesey Review me!  07:20, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep, the article is on a high school in India, few links are  . The High school articles are kept if they are verifiable as per Notability (high schools) --  Ð ℬig  XЯaɣ  08:53, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
 * That essay is one of the most disputed essays on Wikipedia-see Wikipedia talk:Notability (high schools). The concept that articles on high schools should be kept came from a comment made by User:Jimbo Wales.  Not long ago, he clarified that comment stating that he meant to emphasize that an article on a high school could/should be kept if someone takes the time to write  a quality article.

 * tagging an article within an hour of its creation by a Newbie user is clearly wp:BITE, and Your argument above may be relevant at another forum but at least not on this AFD. --  Ð ℬig  XЯaɣ  14:58, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Have you read WP:BITE? Tagging an article for deletion is clearly not a violation.  The page doesn't mention deletion discussions anywhere.  I have not attacked the newcomer in any way.  In addition, why is this AFD specifically excluded from my argument?  Ryan Vesey  Review me!  15:02, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
 * please refer BITE to understand how it is a wp:BITE. --  Ð ℬig  XЯaɣ  15:19, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
 * As I mentioned on my talk page, this issue is not addressed in the section you provided. Furthermore, WP:BITE is not a keep argument.  Ryan Vesey  Review me!  15:23, 14 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep per Notability (high schools). Northamerica1000(talk) 11:45, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep for reason given above. Robert (talk) 14:23, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep per above. (Why do ppl keep nominating schools again & again?!) §§AnimeshKulkarni (talk) 14:25, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I nominated this because it is a poorly written article on a school with few references. The existence of this article does not improve Wikipedia.  There really isn't anything I can do though if nobody will engage with my argument and continue to rely on the mess that is Notability (high schools).  These articles get created all the time and nobody cares enough about them to write a quality article.  Their interest is limited to keeping this slop in Wikipedia.  Ryan Vesey  Review me!  14:31, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I hope you are aware that every article has a development cycle, following which it gradually develops. Also note that, we do not delete all the stubs on wikipedia just because they could have been written in a better way. --  Ð ℬig  XЯaɣ  14:35, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment. I have to agree with Ryan. There are many, many horrendously bad high-school articles in Wikipedia, but they are always kept because "high schools are automatically notable." One can write any kind of "slop" and it will be kept as long as it is about a high school. •••Life of Riley (T–C) 01:50, 16 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Do you both think this kinda "slop" is seen only in school articles? This is available in all types of articles, even biographies. Deletion is no solution for that, i hope you agree. §§AnimeshKulkarni (talk) 05:52, 16 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Generally poorly sourced biographies that are written poorly and don't show evidence of notability are deleted. Ryan Vesey  Review me!  12:26, 16 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep - We keep high schools for the very good reason that experience shows that, with enough research, sources can invariably be found that meet WP:ORG. Google is a very poor tool for finding sources on Indian schools because, unlike US schools, they don't dump everything on the Internet. Indeed, very few have much of an Internet presence at all. We must avoid systemic bias and allow time for local sources to be researched since no evidence has been adduced that this school cannot meet notability requirements.
