St Mary's Catholic Primary School, Portslade
Nothing more than an ad for a minor non-notable school.--CarabinieriTTaallkk 11:12, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep WP:SCHOOL Davodd 11:24, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand. Bhoeble 11:50, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep as per above. -- grafikm_fr 12:45, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete WP:SCHOOL. (not a high school, 211 students)Kotepho 13:57, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. the subject is fair enough, but this is a yellow pages entry and not an encyclopedia article. Wikipedia is not a directory. Sjakkalle (Check!)  14:00, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep and cleanup, WP:SCHOOL. --Ter e nce Ong 14:09, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. May I ask why people are citing WP:SCHOOL, which was an outright rejected set of criteria?  RGTraynor 14:44, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * It is easier than rehashing the arguments over and over in every AFD. Kotepho 15:23, 18 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete, primary school with no indication of notability at all. No encyclopedic information provided.  Google search shows a number of schools with that name (except a different municipality after the comma), and none of those hits are news stories or editorial features, just "here's our nice little school website".  Primary schools, whether religious or secular, generally can't demonstrate verifiable impact on the community like high schools usually can.  Barno 18:12, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per Barno and Sjakkalle. H e nrik 18:39, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, per Sjakkalle. RexNL 20:04, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per strong precedent to keep all schools. Jcuk 21:35, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * In fact there is strong precedent of lack of consensus to keep "all schools", especially at the primary level. I'll admit there is strong precedent of certain users voting to keep all schools, but that's not nearly the same thing.  Barno 21:55, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. I am wondering why so many have cited WP:SCHOOL, when this article does not actually meet the criteria therein! Isopropyl 22:45, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. All. Schools. For great justice. 23:16, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep due to precedent. As much as I'd prefer not to have every school, it's worked out that way and it's not worthwhile to try to undo it. -- Mithent 23:29, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. I have no problem with it being a school, but WP is not the yellow pages. Would be fine if resubmitted as something more than an address. Wstaffor 01:43, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-notable. No free rides. Fagstein 05:24, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
 * It's a school, ergo it's notable. Keep. --Gene_poole 05:46, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep and remove any kind of promotional language. Bahn Mi 17:15, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep- understand and agree that page needs more information e.g. historical etc. and plan to include this information eventually...surely that is the idea of this site...to have people 'build' on the pages created. This page has just started empty. More information will be added soon. Regarding the first comment, I'm sure the thousands of members of the school and local community would NOT consider this to be a 'minor and non-notable school'- surely all schools are important and no school is more important than the next!

 * Delete. Non-notable. &mdash; Rebelguys2 talk 13:53, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
