St. Eunan's College

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

A ridiculous, sprawling, "conflict of interest", unencyclopedic page that has been maintained periodically by the sockpuppets of a single editor. The talkpage for this article will reveal that several editors have attempted to improve the article, before finally giving up in despair. A sample of quotes from the article follow:

"The school is also notable for having a monkey puzzle tree in its grounds..."

"Also on board are Kevin Bowdren (a former chef in the galley of Ireland's largest submarine) and Clive O'Sullivan whose quick thinking averted an international war between Ireland and Spain..."

''"A recent change has involved the splitting of the two female secretaries that frequent the school. One of them has been assigned her own office in a small cramped room by the front door of the school whilst the other has remained in the older larger office. This has been more convenient for parents, visitors or tourists to locate the office or to request help." ''

... but the article is, in fact, composed entirely of material along these lines. I had previously believed that the page could be salvaged, but it has simply become a playpen for the editor who maintains it. Pathlessdesert 21:44, 24 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep The college itself is notable, with past pupils including notable actors, government ministers and notable sportspeople.
 * Comment However, I agree with the comments on the state of the article made by Pathlessdesert above. The article needs to be overhauled and monitored. Flowerpotman talk|wot I've done 22:09, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - this article doesn't seem to be looking for AfD, but WP:DR. WilyD 18:47, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
