Davis Senior High School Band Program[edit]

Non-notable; no evidence of notability actually given. Veinor (ヴエノル^(talk)) 18:17, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep until December 8th and delete after presentation for school project, OR redirect/merge with Davis Senior High School so previous versions of the page remain and can still be presented. Tricklin 18:23, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. --Simonkoldyk 19:12, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I have no problem with a brief mention of the bands on the relevent high school page. However, Wikipedia is not for things made up in school one day including class projects. As such, the current article needs to go. →Bobby← 20:10, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fine band, fine article, no evidence it is more notable than most other high school bands, drama programs, foorball teams, etc. Such articles can be condensed a bit and included in an article about the school. Make a copy of it to turn in for your project. Edison 20:14, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete no independent notability of this school band. Brief mention could be made at Davis Senior High School, but the keep rationale of retaining this for a school project or redirecting to maintain page history simply is not a valid keep reason per Wikipedia is not a free webhost. I agree with Edison, you should make a copy of this now to turn in.--Isotope23 20:17, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
Delete Webhost], put on their page, if absolutely necessary - but it's not as it's a one time thing...SkierRMH 22:03, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The author has told me here on my talkpage that they've saved a copy without the AfD template. Veinor (ヴエノル^(talk)) 17:00, 30 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, at least until the creator can present it. I am a member of this band and find think this kind of thing is very positive for us. Thehyphybus 04:12, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, I agree with hyphy, I think we are worthy of this kind of exposure. I mean, we have been in the newspaper, after all. Tophatfrenches 17:22, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment By the way - to the extent that (as I assume) this article is written by the students in the band program, that brings up conflict of interest concerns as well. It's generally not a good idea for someone in the band to write an article about themselves - far better to let people who aren't connected with you do it. If people who aren't connected with the band had independently decided that they were notable and should have an article, it would be far more likely that they really were notable. --TheOther Bob 17:34, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keepo, pero nesessito articulo de bando. Tocan las banjos. PedroDeGalles 19:45, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, article should be combined into main article about the school. Reeves 23:33, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy Delete. Wikipedia is not the place for school projects (per earlier comment). Vegaswikian 23:49, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, non-notable. WP:RS and WP:V also a problem. --Elar a girl^Talk|Count 00:24, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
