My rationale for this title is that "Nathan L. Bachman School" is the designation given to it by the National Register for Historic Places.Jcf1981 (talk) 21:18, 14 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep as a place on the National Register for Historic Places. The page name should refer to the government listed name. Create redirects for any other plausible search terms. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 07:43, 15 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Listed on the National Register for Historic Places. That's enough per WP:GEOFEAT. And the name should be the one by which it is known as an historic building, which is this one. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:49, 15 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. I added NRHP infobox and otherwise developed the article a bit. I redirected Bachman Community Center to the article and added Bachman Community Center in the lede. Having just one combo article about the former school as an organization/learning place, the historic building, and the current community center makes sense. If/when there is more development about the Bachman Community Center in the article, it could possibly make sense to move it to that name, but currently the notability developed is the historic notability and using the historic name currently is best, IMHO. The NRHP nomination document asserts its importance is in "social history as a Public Works Administration (PWA) project in an unincorporated community of Hamilton County" (so, interestingly, not about its educational function) and in architecture as "an excellent example of Colonial Revival architecture, which retains a high degree of architectural integrity despite additions to the building in 1955". If/when there is significant coverage about the place having some important role in community centering, a move indeed can be supported. Hope this helps. --doncram 03:27, 16 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy Keep - Zero proper AfD rationale given. "Defunct" is not a reason to AfD a topic. And yes this does show up on a google search, including its NRHP designation. I'm noticing the nom is speedy prodding and AfD-ing multiple articles with similar recklessness and no regards to our guidelines not to mention any regard for WP:BEFORE. --Oakshade (talk) 05:26, 16 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - On the National Register of Historic Places. We're done. Carrite (talk) 11:44, 16 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
