Keep, well, duh, it's a school. Hello? — JIP | Talk 10:49, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- I could write an article on my elementary school and say "Elementary school X is located in Y." This would be a school, but do you really want such contextless entries? Please rate articles on their content and not the fact they are about a school. - Mgm|^(talk) 12:27, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  - You're right, but I still stand by my keep vote. There is a reasonable amount of information in this article. It says where the school is located, how it is administered, and includes a performance record and a link to the school's website. — JIP | Talk 13:50, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  - You could write an article on your elementary school and be sure 20 people will spend a great deal of time getting it deleted.--Pypex 17:25, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    - I did. I don't see any people getting it deleted. — JIP | Talk 20:26, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep based on the awards in their performance record, but I'd really like to see who awards them and how often for what achievements. - Mgm|^(talk) 12:25, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, informative article and per wikipedia:Schools/Arguments#Keep. Kappa 12:57, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and delete all articles that contain summaries of reasoning. Reason out your vote for this particular ARTICLE and not "all schools, ever, everywhere, at all times, no matter what." If your vote shows no indication that you've even read this article, how can you be expected to be taken seriously as a deliberator on it? In my case, I do not think we are in the business of replicating the Yellow Pages, and the information in this ARTICLE is virtually nil. If a mention of the school, with basic information, were put into a school district article, that would be fine, but it is a primary school with no information presented on it. Geogre 13:47, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- have you read the article because it has a lot of notable awards and distinguishments erasing this does not even make sense Yuckfoo 18:57, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- If someone nominated a small country, it wouldn't be necessary to read the article to justify a keep vote. If one believes that schools should be kept, there is no difference. CalJW 23:40, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  - Actually, one would need to read it, because we are not discussing possible articles but actual articles, here. I.e. the deliberation is not on the topic but on the actual performance. This is not Requests for Comment on content issues. An article that said, "Fiji is an island country" would be and should be deleted, even though the topic of Fiji should get full coverage. That's why "school watch" and all other voter busing projects must stop. Read the article (which got rapidly filled in by voters), and assess it per the deletion guidelines. Does the article advertise? Is it a copyvio? Is it a dictdef? Only then do you get to "Is the subject encyclopedic?" All the blather about schools addresses the strawman of "notability," but that isn't sufficient nor comprehensive in voting. (As for awards, it's a mug's game to base anything on awards. "World's Greatest Grandpa" doesn't get an article.) Geogre 01:34, 11 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    - So if "Fiji is an island country" would and should be deleted, an article which says "Coombe is a settlement in the county of Hampshire, UK." would also be deletable, perhaps even if it gave the grid reference? Kappa 01:46, 11 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
      - Why should anyone ever do a thing like that? If someone intends to assemble a decent paragraph, they should assemble it in user space or offline and create the article when there is something worthwhile there. If, on the other hand, someone does not really intend to do even ten minutes' work but merely wants to remind people that we need an article on that topic, they should make an article request. See the perfect stub. An article that says "Coombe is a settlement in the county of Hampshire, UK" is not a good stub. People shouldn't just type "Chapter One" at the top of a blank piece of paper and feel they've made a useful start at writing a novel. Dpbsmith (talk) 02:15, 11 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Keep thousands and thousands of people will attend a gradeschool throughout its existance -- this alone makes it notable enough for inclusion. Besides, there are lots of other elementry school articles... We even have gradeschool categories for some states. --Quasipalm 15:35, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Thousands and thousands of people have driven down the road outside my house throughout its existence, but that sure doesn't make it notable for inclusion. If we have other elementary school articles, they should be deleted too. — Haeleth Talk

- If this losing of consciousness becomes a serious problem, might I suggest you stop trying to get a school deleted?--Nicodemus75 16:52, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
keep this article please it is notable and interesting Yuckfoo 17:19, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, Elementary schools have no inherent notability, and there is nothing in exclusively notable about this particular school.--Isotope23 17:31, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- According to the link, the clerk of the house certified "that H.R. No. 999 was adopted by the House on May 9, 2003, by a non-record vote." Now, the question is, what's a non-record vote? Dpbsmith (talk) 00:10, 11 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per Geogre. No reasons have been given that convince me that this particular article about this particular school is encyclopedic, and I do not share the opinion that "it is a school" constitutes such a reason. Dpbsmith (talk) 00:10, 11 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
