- Lincoln Junior High School (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log)
Non-notable elementary school, not verifiable, no school district to redirect it to, attracting racist vandalism and prod tag removed. SolidPlaid 21:07, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge/redirect to Mount Prospect School District 57. No legitimate reason has been provided to refuse to consider a redirect from this article to the district article. All "racist vandalism" was removed using an apparently unfamiliar technique called "editing". Alansohn 22:03, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Still not notable, however. I left the vandalism as evidence, not because I'm unfamiliar with editing. SolidPlaid 22:24, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- In Wikipedia, we don't keep evidence of vandalism, we delete it on sight. Furthermore, Wikipedia:deletion policy is an official policy that specifies that "If the page can be improved, this should be solved through regular editing, rather than deletion." Removing blatant vandalism might have been a first step in a good faith effort to improve the article, an effort that is required but seems to have been ignored.

- My bad, still not notable, though. SolidPlaid 23:21, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete No claim to notability whatsoever. Oppose merger, unsalvageable, you might just as write from scratch. --Victor falk 04:40, 12 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- You may want to take a look at the article without the repeated vandalism that has been removed repeatedly since this AfD started and evaluate before insisting that the article is "unsalvageable". Alansohn 04:50, 12 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, I looked, it told us the names of some of the staff. Not notable. SolidPlaid 19:10, 12 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Redirect to Mount Prospect School District 57. NN by itself, but the whole district would be. I already copied (merged) the content. Bearian 22:44, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
