Non notable school. No famous alumni, nor anything else of special note. Unless we would like WP to turn into an indiscriminate collection of schools all over the world, it would seem this page does not add much to the encyclopedia. xC | ☎ 07:48, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

• Keep strong. According to wikipedia definition An encyclopedia, encyclopaedia or (traditionally) encyclopædia[1] is a comprehensive written compendium that contains information on all branches of knowledge or a particular branch of knowledge. This article gives information and knowledge about some factory of information on all branches of knowledge !Ttturbo 07:55, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
  • That is the weakest keep argument i've ever heard. Under that logic, I could write an article about the shoes I wear since it would give knowledge and information. Articles have to pass various guideline and policies, like WP:NOTE and WP:V. TJ Spyke 08:23, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

The notability has different levels and degrees. So, it depends. If 20 thousand of people have graduated this school, this means notability is aproximately 200 thousand. This 200 thousands has the right to obtain and spreed information about human cultural management.If your shoes were painted by Van Gough you can try to do this. Every school is a tragedy but it is temple of knowledge too.Ttturbo 11:24, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

I don;t understand Every school is a tragedy but it is temple of knowledge too. Aside from that, I believe it might be beneficial to have a look at the five pillars of Wikipedia and acquaint yourself with our policies. At the end of the day we have to write an encyclopedia, not a collection of pages talking about non-notable schools or even shoes painted by van gogh :PxC | ☎ 11:34, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

• Delete No independant sources (only the official website), no assertion of notability (why does this high schol notable enought to deserved an article?) or anything to indicate why this isn't just another school. TJ Spyke 08:23, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per lack of independent non-trivial coverage. Ttturbo unfortunately the criteria you are using has been tried and failed. There would be too many articles with too few sources to verify what is in them and too few editors to care about them, especially if we want to avoid a conflict of interest. That said, I do appreciate that you are now contributing in good faith so please read the relevant policies when they are being mentioned and linked to it and you will soon get the hang of it.
