General Vanier Elementary School

non-notable elementary school, elementary schools must prove notability Nlsanand 22:53, 23 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Also nominated:

Delete both. ALL schools below the college level have to proove their notability (this includes high schools). First one is basically a blank article. TJ Spyke 23:12, 23 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Doesn't establish notability, and has only a couple of lines of information. Chairman S. Talk ^Contribs 23:32, 23 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and/or redirect the articles to their locality or school district (which could've been done without an AfD), these articles seem likely to meet our content policies (in which case a merge and/or redirect seems the appropriate course of action per WP:SCHOOLS, WP:SCHOOLS3, WP:LOCAL, etc.).

- Also, not sure why these were grouped together, as there doesn't seem to be anything in common with them. Next time please nominate separately, thanks (or just redirect them, saves the hassle of an AfD). JYolkowski // talk 00:05, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  - Laziness, and also it should seem pretty obvious how they're related. Nlsanand 04:23, 25 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete both Nothing but name, location, and infoboxes in either. Would not oppose merge/redirect. Shimeru 03:05, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Merge/Redirect to Louis Riel School Division and School District 36 Surrey, respectively. Both WP:SCHOOL and WP:SCHOOLS3, which agree on very little, are in agreement that articles that do not meet notability standards as standalone articles be merge/redirected (where possible) rather than deleted. There is no legitimate reason NOT to handle these articles as a merge/redirect, which will offer a redirect to those typing in the article name, will retain article history, and will allow the articles to be expanded in the future on a standalone basis when additional information from reliable sources becomes available.

- I am cool with the above mentioned redirect option. Nlsanand 06:15, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
merge and redirect is the best option here or the article needs more contents Yuckfoo 08:43, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete both no assertion of notability. Eluchil404 09:55, 28 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
