Another spam article about a non-notable school. Jmlk17 06:22, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep as a somewhat useful article, at least potentially if not currently. It might not have the name recognition of Chuck Norris, but if I were considering sending my kids there I'd appreciate an informative description of the place. Remember WP:SENSE and WP:IGNORE. --Talk 07:41, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • "I'd appreciate an informative description of the place"... for which the school's own website should be appropriate. In its current form, which is a simple duplication of what the school's website should be, while showing no notability outside existing and no sources independant of the school itself (let alone at all) the article would best be redirected with possible weak minor merge to an article on the district the school is in, if identifiable. Not-a-keep not-a-vote. -- saberwyn 11:07, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - just about any academic organization that was a Wikipedia article has a website. "This information could exist somewhere apart from Wikipedia, therefore this information should not exist in Wikipedia" is a non sequitur. In any case, the website likely has a very small handful of administrators, while the article can be edited by several thousand knowledgeable editors, the latter collective having much more neutral intent. You won't find commentary on such things as overpopulation, drugs, violence, etc. on the school's website. --Talk 21:17, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - No notability established & intermediate schools are not inherenty notable Corpx 05:03, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep if the following can be sourced"Although at sometimes not having the best reputation, In 2001 A young girl shot herself in one of the school's upstairs restrooms. Local news channel ABC 13 was one of the first to report the incident on it;s newscast speaking to Klein ISD's Superintendent/Spokesperson of Community Relations. Though that incident is in the school's past. Kleb continues to be one of the best Klein ISD Intermediate Campuses Accademically and Organizationally." DGG (talk) 06:59, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • KeepI believe I can source that, DGG, from a police report site; there may be other incidents there as well; if not I may change my vote. -- Naruttebayo 21:06, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I see the source that it happened, and it confirms that it is a possible weak keep--but I remain concerned that this is one relatively minor incident in a world of greater violence, and the rest of the article contains only directory information. I would recommend withdrawing the article, looking for additional content, and then re-inserting it. DGG (talk) 05:26, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
