This orphan article is about a subject that fails to meet the notability guideline, in particular because of a lack of reliable sources. While there are two sources listed, one is an offline source in Hungarian, and one is at a site blacklisted by Google and Firefox because of malware infestation. A search for alternative sources to establish notability, or even third-party sources to establish facts presented in the article, came up empty. Since it was created, it has received no substantial updates. There is no obvious destination article to accept a merger of the content from this article. ⌘macwhiz (talk) 15:23, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. These searches are more likely to be successful than the ones above: Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL. Phil Bridger (talk) 15:28, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Those searches seem to come up pretty short on reliable sources to establish notability, as well... // ⌘macwhiz (talk) 15:35, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep on the basis of per se notability of secondary schools. —Carrite, Oct. 3, 2010.
- Keep per the established consensus on the notability of secondary schools; no reason for an exception has been advanced. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 17:26, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- So that I can learn, where is this established consensus documented? I haven't been able to find it, nor a list of exceptions. // ⌘macwhiz (talk) 18:22, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Thanks! I wasn't aware of that, and while I can't say I fully agree with it, I acknowledge it as current policy, and that this AfD is unlikely to succeed. It seems to me that rather than deleting the article, the done thing here would be to stub it within an inch of its life, given how little of it is cited or verifiable. I'd certainly prefer to build it up, but aside from the per se notability, the rest of the publishing world doesn't seem to find it very notable. If anybody watching has got any leads...? I'll set to copy-editing it in the near future. // ⌘macwhiz (talk) 20:41, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- It's likely a case of FUTON bias. tedder (talk) 21:09, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep per above. The school exists, even though online information is slim. tedder (talk) 21:09, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: Beyond our current de facto policy of keeping verifiable high school articles, I can see references to it under its Hungarian name, "Fáy András Közgazdasági Szakközépiskola" though they are hide to decipher.--Milowent • talkblp-r 15:21, 7 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
