Turramurra High School
Vanity school article, promo. –Mysid 10:42, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
 * I retract that&mdash;looks like a really decent stub now. Keep. –Mysid 12:56, 1 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Cut the guff and keep a stub. I thought high schools were inherently notable now? (I can't keep up). - Randwicked 12:30, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge into school district or town. This school is an important public institution and should be written about somewhere, even if it cannot sustain an article on their own. Presently people do create school articles containing neutral, verifiable information and it is impossible to delete them, even though many have a desire to do so. Rather than striving for an impossible consensus to delete any given school article, I feel it is always preferable and takes much less energy to merge the text of the article into an article about a suitable habitation or administrative unit: a city, county or state, or a school district of local education authority of other school system, while taking care not to delete the information contained in the article. The article itself should be replaced by a redirect. Hipocrite - &laquo; Talk &raquo; 12:48, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Nice to see. May be the ball is still rolling on the a school talks? I have started adding schools to the school watch clean up. Hopefully that will be the start to circumventing pointless Afd's. Others should consider listing the microstub schools there instead of Afd untiol a consensus is reached on merging. David D. (Talk) 19:59, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep. Valid High School.-- Dak ota   t   e  19:35, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep and no merge. Good progress on article at this time. David D. (Talk) 19:59, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep and do not merge as per Schools/Arguments. Silensor 20:05, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Borderline merge into local town article per Hipocrite and WP:SCH. To any of the "keep" voters who voted "keep" automatically: please consider adopting the WP:SCH proposal instead, which I believe suggests that this article should be merged. By doing so you could hasten the adoption of a guideline which could help bring an end to these pointless and time-wasting AfD nominations. Please consider either changing your votes to "merge", or expanding the article: a couple more verifiable sentences, or a good photo of the school, would bring this undisputably over the threshold set by the WP:SCH proposal, making it a clear "keep". &mdash; Haeleth Talk 22:13, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
 * The Wikipedia school proposal is a last desperate attempt to get school articles deleted against consensus. No one is going to do the mass merging anyway, so what's the point? You deletionists can't even be bothered to nominate many and merging will be more work. CalJW 10:49, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
 * What nonsense. It is an attempt to get a clear consensus on the criteria for merging to prevent edit wars in the future. Merging is not more time consuming than an AFD. Frankly your input has been cynical all along and is wearing a bit thin.  David D. (Talk) 06:05, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm trying to be nice here, CalJW, but if you'd like me to be nominating school articles, why all you need to do is ask. How about taking a pleasant pill? D e nni &#9775;  01:40, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Valid school article. Cnwb 22:20, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep; no reasonable basis for deletion has been offered. Another notable school that should be in Wikipedia. Christopher Parham (talk) 04:24, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge scrapes past verifiability -- red stucco 09:24, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep First one for a few days. Hopefully the last. CalJW 10:48, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
 * If you cannot get it through your head that a compromise on this issue is in everyone's best interest, I can guarantee you that you will be spending a lot more time in AfD rescuing your school articles. Your belligerent attitude does not serve to win you allies. D e nni &#9775;  00:44, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
