A long list of mostly red links. Categories serve far better for this purpose. Just in case someone gets the wrong idea, this nomination has nothing to do with the debate over school notability and only has to do with whether lists or categories are better for this kind of thing.

- Extreme Delete Inspires schoolcruft. - Kookykman|(t)e
- Delete I don't oppose schoolcruft, but I do agree with the sentiment about categories. --djrobgordon 20:14, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Red-link farm, would be better as a category. Where can you see schooools? Only in Kenya! Come to Kenya, we've got schools. Forget Norway! Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 20:34, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- delete A category called "Schools in Kenya" already exists. --Starionwolf 05:02, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, per nom. It also has the added evil of encouraging schoolcruft. - Motor (talk) 10:21, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- keep please school articles are not evil try to be civil Yuckfoo 00:11, 17 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- While your point about civility is well taken, the fact is that this is not a debate about schools (despite the comments of some users that may indicate otherwise), but rather a debate about list vs. category. Do you believe that this list accomplishes something the category does not, or did you just see school in the title and blindly vote keep? Indrian 04:52, 17 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- lists do things categories cant and loaded questions are not appreciated either really Yuckfoo 19:18, 19 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep- good start and good way of getting people to work on Kenya school articles. The category is fine too. --JJay 00:36, 20 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per nom, Cat. with 3 sub-Cat. would serve the same purpose. --WinHunter (talk) 16:33, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
