Roseville High School Auto Shop

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article about an individual vocational program at an individual high school, with no credible or sourced claim of wider notability. The only source here is a self-published print-on-demand book written by the author of this article, who clearly has a direct family relationship of some kind with the teacher of the course (their surname is too rare and distinctive for it to be a pure coincidence that they both have the same one) -- which makes this a conflict of interest flying in two directions at one. None of this suggests that the course warrants the attention of an international encyclopedia. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 19:13, 3 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete: doesn't meet WP:GNG or WP:GROUP, with the only refs I could find being either self published or WP:NOTRELIABLE. crh23 (talk) 20:02, 3 April 2016 (UTC)


 * I agree that this program does not warrant a separate article on Wikipedia. On the other hand, sources indicate that it is a noteworthy aspect of the high school (e.g. ), and I would have !voted to merge this to the high school's article, but for the improvident fact that the school doesn't yet have an article.  So instead I will suggest userfying this content until such time as it can be incorporated into an appropriate article about Roseville High School (Roseville, Michigan). --Arxiloxos (talk) 21:04, 3 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete: None of the sources Arxiloxos cites would meet the GNG, I'm afraid; they're all fleeting mentions of the subject of the sort debarred by WP:ROUTINE. That the auto shop is an integral part of the high school I don't question -- my own high school's vocational wing was an integral part there as well -- but I doubt it's any more noteworthy than its English department or football team, elements of high schools that don't commonly achieve their own articles.

 * Delete as a local school's local program, no signs of Wikipedia notability. SwisterTwister   talk  04:46, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. I agree with Arxiloxos that this article could conveniently be merged (shortened) into a future article about Roseville High School (Roseville, Michigan), but non-notable drafts aren't supposed to be left to languish indefinitely in userspace. If and when an article about the school comes into being, one would hope that the author of this article has saved his text privately; if not, I'll be happy to provide it for him at that time. But not now. Bishonen &#124; talk 18:41, 7 April 2016 (UTC).
