Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wesley Matthews Elementary School (2nd nomination)


 * 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 delete and redirect. Put frankly, I couldn't find anything substantial to merge, and no-where within the destination article to merge the little that was marge-worthy. If someone wants to merge it, I'll happily undelete the history behind the redirect and they can do so editorially. Just leave me a note on my talk page and I'll do so.

Wesley Matthews Elementary School
AfDs for this article: 
 * – (View AfD) (View log)

non notable elementary school. Elementary schools do not generally have inherent notability, and this one only has light assertions of notability (otherwise it would be speedied). &rArr;   SWAT Jester    Denny Crane.  01:41, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge to Miami-Dade County Public Schools, just an average elementary school without notability. Nyttend 00:57, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Comment: This was never put on the main AfD page. I've put it in the September 25 log. Wizardman  18:27, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
 *  Keep Delete/ReDirect: There are so many schools, especially related to Miami-Dade County. Every school on the template  has its own page and the majority aren't really notable enough for their own article.  That is why they are listed as stubs.  Oh, and I already know about WP:WAX but that is an essay, not a guideline.  So don't bring it up in reference to my comment. - Rjd0060 21:37, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment What I will bring up, however, is your meaning: are you saying that WMES is more notable than others, or that articles about nonnotable schools are good enough for stubs, or something else? Nyttend 04:06, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Reply: I am saying that none of them are notable. Which is why I believe they are all stubs, and could be expanded.  Unless the entire problem is going to be corrected (and that means merging all of the non notable schools from  (which is most of them) I am going to say keep on this one. - Rjd0060 14:43, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
 * But if they're not notable, why should any of them be kept? Why should they even exist as stubs?  Nyttend 00:46, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Because I disagree with going after only one at a time. That is pointless, and well, stupid.  They should be nominated in groups.  Obviously when admin closes this discussion, it will be a merge but I am just saying this "for the record" that they should all be AFD'd.  I am changing mine to Delete/Redirect, but hopefully you understand my point.  - Rjd0060 01:29, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, frankly I disagree as well with that idea as well. Go look at the AFD logs from when this was first nominated: I nominated pretty much all of these schools, but it was kept for procedural reasons because most people thought that the group nomination was a bad idea.  You're going to have to nominate them individually if you want them to be deleted.  Nyttend 04:20, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
 * I understand the people have problems with group AFD's. I dont know why though.  They save so much time.  I did change my opinion to Delete/Redirect.  - Rjd0060 14:20, 27 September 2007 (UTC)


 * merge per nom, most of those below high school in Miami-Dade are non-notable and unworthy of the article space-Wikipedia is not a directory or a collection of space-filler. Chris 02:19, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
