Westgarth Primary School

 * – ( View AfD View log )

The article fails to address WP:ORG or WP:GNG and WP:NHS does not apply for primary schools. The article had a PROD in 2007 which was removed without a clear rationale. Fæ (talk) 07:40, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Merge/redirect to Westgarth, Victoria where it is already covered, per usual practice for Australian schools. I am in the process of tidying up its entry there and will add one or two key facts. TerriersFan (talk) 02:19, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment - please note that I have alerted the creator (not active) and recent contributors. TerriersFan (talk) 02:39, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Westgarth, Victoria per standard practice for non-notable Australian primary schools. Jenks24 (talk) 02:45, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Entirely non-notable school. Merging/redirecting does not make it any more notable and this selective addition of some schools to locality articles leads to unbalanced articles both in the article itself and among articles as a whole. The "usual practice" needs to stop - it is doing more harm than good. -- Mattinbgn (talk) 03:15, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete in the same spirit as Mattinbgn's vote - I agree entirely with it. The pictures would be a valuable addition to the Westgarth article, but beyond that I'm not seeing much mergable, or understanding why a redirect should exist. Orderinchaos 03:57, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Mattinbgn puts good arguments up. only worth merging if there is actual contect worth merging. otherwise fails WP:ORG. LibStar (talk) 05:53, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Westgarth PS is a notable local institution. It's a good article.  The fact that it might be referred to in another article is neither here nor there in my view.  The article is well written and it contributes to the sum of knowledge, ie the precise reason why Wikipedia exists.  I suggest the article be kept.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jesaulenko (talk • contribs) 11:28, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
