Hurst Hill Primary School (Coseley)

This is a stub about a primary (elementary) school. Elementary schools are inherently non-notable. --It's-is-not-a-genitive 14:37, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge for the borough. Not because all elementary schools are inherently non notable; just because the present state of information about this one--and the ones following--do not provide enough information to justify a separate article. I agree this will apply to most elementary school articles on Wikipedia and to most of those being added, but it's not inherent, and does not apply to all.DGG 19:07, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with you on that one, DGG. As for not all elementary schools deserving the chop, I am in agreement: nearly all elementary school-related articles do have little place on Wikipedia (and this comes from a non-deletionist,) but a few, which have some notability other than their being elementary schools, deserve to stay. --It's-is-not-a-genitive 22:23, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or merge per DGG, but not per nom. Stifle (talk) 19:53, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Merge but with the town of Coseley rather than Dudley borough. The borough is just an administrative area and it makes no sense to merge it with the borough. There is no consensus that all primary/schools are not notable. Each case should be judged on its merit. Many UK primary schools have long histories and started out as the only school in the local village catering for the education of all children up to the age of 14. Many of them too are located in listed buildings. This school too potentially has an interesting history but there is nothing in the article as it is written to tell us if the school is noteworthy or not. Dahliarose 13:12, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
