Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tilbury District High School


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was no consensus. This discussion is fairly similar in numerical Keeps and delete/redirects. The keep !votes are primarily that it meets GNG - they don't argue that it meets NORG, but instead several !voters pointed out that NORG doesn't compulsarily apply to non for-profit schools.

Set against that are those arguing that it does need to meet NORG, but also that the sources present are insufficient (even for GNG).

A good case could be made for a close in any direction here, but I feel that it remains non clearcut at this point is a good indication of no consensus. Nosebagbear (talk) 15:49, 22 October 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: What is in dispute here is GNG, and mere assertions to failing it or passing it are not sufficient. I see there are sources in the article; but see overall little detailed discussion on the suitability (or lack thereof) of said sources.
 * Keep. I added some references. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 19:43, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep meets GNG with references. Nfitz (talk) 00:48, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. Easily satisfies WP:GNG, as does pretty much every secondary school in the western world. -- Necrothesp (talk) 08:41, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
 * No, Necrothesp, even schools have to prove their notability, not their existence. That is already in 2017 decided in an RFC. The Banner  talk 17:02, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete. None of the references provide in-depth coverage of the school, and they're all local news anyway (see WP:AUD). AleatoryPonderings (???) (!!!) 01:11, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I don't think WP:NCORP is the appropriate guideline, according to comments below. NemesisAT (talk) 09:56, 20 October 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep WP:GNG does not exclude local coverage. I've added three references which all focus on the school, establishing notability. I feel WP:GNG is now met. NemesisAT (talk) 14:50, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
 * @ Actually it does for schools to a certain extent. Schools fall under WP:NORG which excludes local coverage per WP:AUD. While we can use some local coverage, these must be augmented by sources with a wider audience in order to prove notability. 4meter4 (talk) 20:22, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Actually, NORG mentions "for-profit schools", implying that public schools don't fall under the criteria. Please note I am not making an argument as to the notability of this school. 78.26  (spin me / revolutions) 04:02, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete What I is see is mainly a collection of dead links (Chatham News), passing mentions and database info. The Banner  talk 17:10, 16 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Comment An WP:ATD exists via a redirect/merge to either Tilbury, Ontario or Lambton Kent District School Board. As for the sources in the article, the Windsor Star articles seem good, but that's only one outlet, and the other ones feel too trivial to really impress me.
