Fails notability verification per WP:NRV. It was a short-lived private tutoring service. Indigo Sudbury Campus was not classified as a school in Alberta so the article cannot claim the high school notability exemption. The article has been in existence for years, but has had no content additions since it was created, and most of that material was simply copied from a similar article and was not really applicable to this article. There has been no response after 3 or 4 months of requests for input after I pruned the article. What's left is unsourced and unverifiable. Meters (talk) 21:17, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Subject is not a recognized school. A Google turned up very little, and nothing that comes close to ringing the notability bell. Subject fails WP:GNG, WP:ORG and WP:NRV. -Ad Orientem (talk) 22:51, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Per nomen, fails credible claim of significance. (WP:CCOS) Mr. Guye (talk) 00:38, 25 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to List of Sudbury schools. (Redirects are cheap.) I have seven decent hits for this in LexisNexis, a few dedicated to the subject (e.g., Cathy Lord (August 23, 2002), "No tests, no rules, no report cards: New Edmonton school offers private, alternative experience for city students", Edmonton Journal (Alberta): A1). Based on these hits, I'd say it meets the GNG, yet since the sources are behind a paywall (or in old newspapers) and there isn't quite enough to build a fully bodied article, I'm recommending a redirect to the list of Sudbury schools, hopefully to be expanded one day to a "List of Sudbury schools in Canada" (this school was the third such) with some more description. I can't find a source on its 2008 closing and the ghits are quite sparse. czar  16:41, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm fine with a redirect. It sounds like there are sources, we just don't have easy access to them. Hobit (talk) 03:34, 29 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
