Riverview Middle School

Riverview Middle School (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Fails WP:SCHOOLS3. No assertion of notability. Nothing that can't be found on the school's webpage (less, AAMOF). Denni ^talk 21:50, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom. Only 216 unique G-hits. wikipediatrix 22:02, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment WP:SCHOOLS3 is only a proposed guideline. Trebor 22:04, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Okay, it also fails WP:SCHOOL, which is a far more restrictive set of criteria. Denni ^talk 22:29, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Still only a proposed guideline though. Trebor 22:37, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      • The lack of a set-in-stone guideline on Schools makes no difference as far as this AfD goes. The lack of one doesn't mean we have to accept every article created about every building that ever contained a teacher. Short of specific policy, consensus and common sense must be brought to bear. wikipediatrix 22:43, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
        • I know, I just wanted to clarify in case someone thought it failed an accepted notability guideline. Trebor 22:48, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Question I looked at WP:SCHOOL and WP:SCHOOL3 and it seems that WP:SCHOOL3 is the more restrictive set of criteria, not WP:SCHOOL. Any thoughts? 38.100.34.2 23:53, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment. Encyclopedias aren't supposed to have things you couldn't find otherwise, and schools tend to put everything about themselves on their webpages. -Amarkov ^blah_edits 22:18, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete While consensus is that a significant percentage of school articles on Wikipedia are notable, this article does not present any evidence of meeting WP:SCHOOL, the highest standard guideline for evaluation of school articles, and does not offer any prospect of such through its web site, Google searches and Google news archive at this point in time. Should any new information turn up, the article should be updated or recreated as appropriate. As such a minuscule number of schools meet WP:SCHOOLS3, the failure to meet that criteria seems irrelevant, nor does WP:SCHOOLS3 offer any measure of credibility as a consensus standard.

  • Comment I don't think either of them has anything resembling a consensus at this point. I see no evidence that WP:SCHOOLS has more of a non-majority than WP:SCHOOLS3 at this point. JoshuaZ 03:57, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Has no indication of notability and has
  WP:V issues as well. Would not object to having it turned into a redirect to the school district and leaving the history intact. JoshuaZ 03:57, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply

• First off, I'm not sure how this article is useful. Second, do you want a merge or a keep? Third, fails WP:SCHOOLS3. Delete. -- Kicking222 19:26, 23 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Information about the 7-11 down the street from my house is useful, it doesn't mean it belongs here. Trusilver 22:35, 25 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Fails both WP:SCHOOL and WP:SCHOOLS3. Trusilver 22:32, 25 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
