Pennfield Senior High School

Lack of notability, does not withstand precedent to delete similar articles that fail to note substantial relevance. Fails to pass either WP:SCHOOLS or WP:SCHOOLS3. Trusilver 22:24, 18 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete no-notable; doesn't even have more than a thousand students... my school even has more than that.... Cbrown1023 20:25, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, fails to provide information beyond that one would expect in a directory or prospectus (Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a directory or prospectus). Also fails WP:V due to absence of secondary sources. — Haeleth Talk 23:07, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • keep please this should be important to community and has notable alumni too Yuckfoo 02:20, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per above. wikipediatrix 02:42, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. The only claim to notability is a single barely notable alumnus. JoshuaZ 04:15, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom and per Haeleth, or Merge to an appropriate article (local school district or city/region article). Xtifr tälk 12:14, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep not only per my belief that all secondary educational institutions and above are notable, but also for the upcoming state-of-the-art $28 million dollar high school project due to be completed next year and the famous alumni. Yamaguchi先生 03:38, 22 November 2006
Personal beliefs are not a valid criteria, and saying that something will be notable in the future because of something "upcoming" violates WP:CRYSTAL. wikipediatrix 03:45, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
This has nothing to do with WP:CRYSTAL, the project is notable and verifiable even prior to completion. Yamaguchi先生 03:47, 22 November 2006
  • Keep I see no reason this should be deleted.  ALKIVAR™ ☢ 03:49, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
That's swell, but our keep-or-delete choice is supposed to cite what part of policy/guidelines support our choice. wikipediatrix 03:56, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I don't care all that much whether this particular article stays or not, but the default option on AFD is to keep -- it is only really necessary to cite what part of policy/guidelines support the deletion of an article. Of course, people voting keep without giving any good reasons aren't very persuasive, and would likely be given somewhat less credence by the closing admin. older ≠ wiser 05:01, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, large enough school, notable to the local community. bbx 15:19, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Large enough for what? Largeness is not a notability criterion. If it's notable only to the local community, then per WP:LOCAL, it should be merged to an article about the local community. And in any case, merely asserting that it's "notable to the local community" does not make it true. To establish notability (local or otherwise), you need to provide evidence that reliable sources have taken note of it. Xtifr tälk 13:55, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • keep for all the above reasons Hmains 01:03, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. WMMartin 16:49, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - It's fairly easy to turn a school article into... an article. If we find the history, for instance, this should make this article more than a directory. WhisperToMe 19:14, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The media coverage, notable alumnus and state championships won by the school are indicative of meeting the WP:SCHOOL standards. Alansohn 19:52, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per the quiet guy Albatross2147 22:42, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
