Article has few sources (~10, due to the fact that it isn't an organization any more. Jakeable (talk) 21:23, 2 November 2013 (UTC) Creating deletion discussion for Divernon High School[reply]

Keep Consensus per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES is that high schools are almost always considered notable. The fact that it merged is not relevant, as notability is not temporary. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 22:24, 2 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - no valid deletion reason given. High Schools, with sufficient research, almost invariably turn up enough sources to meet WP:ORG. It looks a good idea to merge this school into a new page for the combined school but I see no benefit to deletion. The Whispering Wind (talk)
Keep of course, per Cullen. . Nominator (209 edits) is probably not aware of what we do with schools. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 14:26, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Keep - No valid rationale for deletion presented. Beyond that, by longstanding consensus at AfD, High Schools of verified existence are presumed to be notable; whether they still exist is neither here nor there so long as they did exist. Carrite (talk) 06:43, 5 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy Keep What Cullen said! John from Idegon (talk) 05:35, 7 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Not again. By long precedent, secondary schools articles are invariably kept. No longer existing is not a reason for deletion. This is an encyclopaedia. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:37, 7 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
