i do not believe that Ouachita Hills Academy is notable also this article is promotional of the school as this article violates NPOV wikipedia is not an advocacy platform also there are zero citations so you cannot verify the claims of this article Jonnymoon96 (talk) 01:56, 20 March 2017 (UTC)

- Guidelines unclear. My searches using the "find sources" links turned up virtually no independent coverage. Per NSCHOOLS, this article must have received significant coverage in reliable, independent sources to be retained, and that would ordinarily settle the matter.
However, the 2017 schools RFC instructs: "Because extant secondary schools often have reliable sources that are concentrated in print and/or local media, a deeper search than normal is needed to attempt to find these sources. At minimum, this search should include some local print media." I don't have the resources to dig through local sources, so am I prohibited from voting "delete" here? Or does the RFC require only that someone in the discussion perform the search before the discussion can close in favor of deletion? Or is the close merely exhorting us to perform local searches, not mandating it? Rebbing 23:19, 20 March 2017 (UTC)
- I searched Nexis and couldn't find substantial coverage in local news, Rebbing. I would have thought most US local newspaper content is available online in any case (I think this part of the RfC close refers more to non-Western contexts). Cordless Larry (talk) 12:56, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
- Cordless Larry: Oh, duh! Of course it would be available online: if not on the Web directly, at least as scans in a newspaper database. Thank you. Rebbing 13:12, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
