The article does not show notability. Schuym1 (talk) 06:01, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Conditional delete Redirect - I agree with the nominator, but if the article is expanded with some more content and a reference confirming notability I think I would change it to keep. Most high schools will have received attention from the local media at some point, but the burden is on the article writer to find this information. Han-Kwang (t) 14:41, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Local media doesn't make schools notable. Schuym1 (talk) 14:45, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
 * There is nothing in WP:N that disallows local media. TerriersFan (talk) 15:39, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Can you point out which policy says so? I'd say coverage by a local newspaper (serving 100,000 or so subscribers) would do the job. Not everything needs to be covered by the NY Times. By the way, my response was inspired by WP:Notability (high schools) and the talk page, which is not an official guideline, but still food for thought. Han-Kwang (t) 15:44, 7 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Wolmer's School, an existing article on the whole school. TerriersFan (talk) 15:39, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Good, the proposed article is really short anyway. I see the redirect has already been made now. Han-Kwang (t) 15:48, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
