Westwood Elementary School (Coquitlam)

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Delete Completely non-notable elementary school. For an elementary school to warrant inclusion there needs to be something far more compelling that "it exists." Soltak | Talk 20:01, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I am horrified to note the presence of "Category:Elementary schools in British Columbia" and seek to expand this AfD to delete all articles within the category. Soltak | Talk 20:02, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete all unless there is a school with particular notability. I feel your pain, brother deletionist! :-) --Brianyoumans 20:11, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * keep as potentially notable, as there is no current notability guideline regarding schools. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Niffweed17 (talk • contribs) 22:12, 9 February 2007 (UTC).


 * Delete all Elementary schools in Coquitlam unless there is Signiigant notability (Which I doubt) to any of them.Corporal Punishment 22:27, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete all. In the absence of topic-specific guidelines, go with the standard ones. If someting is potentially notable but doesn't explain how it is notable now, it's not notable now. Remember that deleting now doesn't forbid future creation of an article that contains references to support notability, if and when it becomes notable. Why aren't these noms bundled into one? I'd support deleting all that do not claim (with support) notability. Wish I could find the recent AfD that led to deletion of a huge chunk of localcruft.

 * Delete; notability of school not established. Schools are not inherently notable (or "potentially notable", whatever that means), and of the dozens or even hundreds of articles on Wikipedia considered for deletion (AFD, speedy or otherwise) every day because they don't assert the notability of their subjects, I don't see why this one (or any other article about a questionably notable school) should be kept.

 * Delete Schools are not inherently notable. Wikipedia is not a directory. No assertion of notability. Resolute 07:53, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per Resolute. GreenJoe 19:45, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
 * The article was created in June 2006, and last edited ( before this AfD debate ) in July 2006. Nobody has bothered about the article since then, for one simple reason: the school is not notable. There's no claim of notability, no evidence to suggest notability, and notability certainly isn't self-evident. Delete. WMMartin 21:45, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
