User:PJKs shirt/Southmoor Primary School

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Primary school. Review of gbooks and gnews fails to turn up notable, substantial, non-passing, multiple, independent RS coverage that reflects notability, though it contains run-of-the-mill coverage. Convention with such schools is, as I understand it, that they do not generally warrant a stand-alone article. Delete (w/redirect to whatever makes sense would be fine) appears to be in order.

 * I think this should more properly be an MfD -- if an admin could move it, that would be great.--Epeefleche (talk) 08:45, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Even if it's meant to be over at MfD, would you like to point to the parts of WP:USERPAGES with which this page has issues? If this was your first error, amongst your ~160 school article nominations in the last couple of months (out of the ~200 total for all editors), then maybe it'd be OK, but it isn't (do you remember Articles_for_deletion/Huaian_Foreign_Language_School, which you thought wasn't a school region, despite it saying so in the lead?). Just withdraw this nomination. &tilde;danjel [ talk &#124; contribs ] 08:58, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
 * I believe that this is the appropriate part of the userspace guideline. ElKevbo (talk) 11:13, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
 * You mean where it says:
 * Unfinished draft articles may also be moved to Wikipedia:WikiProject Abandoned Drafts for adoption by other editors if the original author no longer wants them or appears to have stopped editing.
 * I don't see deletion as a remedy mentioned there. &tilde;danjel [ talk &#124; contribs ] 11:49, 9 February 2012 (UTC)


 * WTF? It's in someone's userspace. This campaign is insane. Are we now seriously suggesting that notability has to be established in drafts? And that the response if they don't is to merge/redirect them? &tilde;danjel [ talk &#124; contribs ] 08:26, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
 * It seems difficult to argue that this is a draft of an article-to-be when it hasn't been touched in over three years. ElKevbo (talk) 10:58, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
 * We don't have a time limit, who knows when the editor might get back to it (and who cares, it's the editor's perogative to get back to it when s/he wants to)? &tilde;danjel [ talk &#124; contribs ] 11:06, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
 * In theory your argument has some validity. But in practice it stretches belief when applied to an article that's gone untouched since November of 2008 and was only worked on by a single purpose editor whose last edits were the November 2008 edits to this article. ElKevbo (talk) 11:11, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
 * My point remains that no one should care. &tilde;danjel [ talk &#124; contribs ] 11:13, 9 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Comment But, you have to admit, a Google search for "User:PJKs shirt/Southmoor Primary School" doesn't turn up very much. Still, targeting a draft in user space seems like a violation of WP:GOODSPORTSMANSHIP, don't you think?--Hjal (talk) 09:53, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep and speedy close Wrong venue for this, should be at MfD if anywhere. Yunshui 雲&zwj;水 10:06, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep and speedy close As the bright red warning message says, "This template is being used in the wrong namespace." (To prevent further outbreaks, I've commented out the mainspace category and stub template from this user page.) - Dravecky (talk) 10:52, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep and speedy close This nomination is a disgrace. Everybody has the right to try to compose an article on a school without interference in his/her own userspace. I have added noindex to remove it from Google and that should be enough. Night of the Big Wind  talk  11:47, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
