Harding Charter Preparatory High School

Delete Notablility not asserted. Reads like an advertisment rather than an independant summary of the school... perhaps is just needs a huge overhaul but the way it is now is unacceptable as an Encylopedic entry. KsprayDad 06:56, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

~~Delete~~ Strong Delete. This is an clearly an ad, and there is no notability asserted. Only 53 Google hits, most on sites like Rate My Teachers that do not assert any kind of notability. WP:SCHOOL is not a policy, and high schools are not inherently notable whether there is a wikiproject or not. --Coredesat 08:54, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Rewrite this is spam, but schools are notable Computerjoe's talk 13:12, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I just stated that WP:SCHOOL is not a policy. --Coredesat 23:23, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. High schools are notable. It's not fair for people to keep nominating individual high school articles in the belief that all high schools are not notable when there is a consensus that high schools are notable. Anyway, the article is a bit better now. TruthbringerToronto 18:40, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete nn school; another citation to a purported consensus that all high schools are notable, there are numerous deletes on the 3 HS's up for AfD's currently, seems that consensus is not as solid as claimed. Carlossuarez46 06:29, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Coredsat, no notability claim or implied, schools are not inherently notable and WP:SCHOOL is not policy; as noted, this reads like advertising copy, which always makes me suspicious that someone somewhere is having their copyright infringed.

Keep. New high school, just as good as the old high schools. --JJay 12:35, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and rewrite, per precedent. -Hit bull, win steak^(Moo!) 23:52, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete the precedent is no consenus, not keep, feel free to "vote" on your own opinion. This school is nn. --E ivind ^t ^@^c 06:36, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree with your assessment of the situation. From what I can tell, precedent in this area is well-established. -Hit bull, win steak^(Moo!) 13:26, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep — I regularly check the delete pages each day just to see if any high schools are listed. :-P What fun. — RJH (talk) 18:42, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep This is a valuable article for people that live near the school. Ramseystreet 22:32, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep High schools are suitable topics for wikipedia. Chicheley 01:29, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Chicheley and the established precedent. Yamaguchi先生 06:55, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and cleanup if needed, most schools are notable. bbx 06:57, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep for reasons established at Wikipedia:Schools/Arguments#Keep. Yes, WP:SCHOOL is not policy, but neither is the nicely written essay at Wikipedia:Notability. Silensor 22:09, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
